Fifty; the cardinal number used both literally (counting people, coins) and in round-number estimates.
The indeclinable Greek numeral for fifty, appearing in both literal and estimative contexts. Jesus organizes the crowd into groups of fifty for the feeding miracle (Mark 6:40; Luke 9:14), a creditor forgives a debt of fifty denarii (Luke 7:41), and an unjust steward reduces a bill to fifty measures of oil (Luke 16:6). In John 8:57 it serves as a round-number marker of age: 'You are not yet fifty years old.' Every target language renders it with its native numeral — Spanish 'cincuenta,' French 'cinquante,' German 'funfzig' — confirming a single transparent sense.
