πεντᾰκόσιοι G4001
five hundred, the number 500
This adjective denotes the number five hundred. At Athens, it could refer specifically to the senate of five hundred. In the New Testament, both uses involve this specific number in different contexts. Luke 7:41 contains Jesus' parable of two debtors, one owing five hundred denarii. First Corinthians 15:6 reports that the risen Christ appeared to 'more than five hundred brothers at one time'—a significant resurrection appearance. The number emphasizes either substantial debt or massive eyewitness testimony to resurrection.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Luke 7:41 uses the genitive plural with 'denarii' (500 denarii of debt), while 1 Corinthians 15:6 uses a dative after the preposition 'above' (more than 500). The translations consistently render the numeral: Spanish 'quinientos,' French 'cinq-cents,' German 'fuenfhundert.' Luke's use provides scale for the parable—a debt so large that forgiveness is stunning. Paul's use provides massive verification—hundreds of eyewitnesses, most still alive, who could testify to the resurrection. Both uses employ 500 as a substantial, memorable number. 2×
