Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

στρατόπεδον [page 593] For στρατόπεδον = soldiers in camp, army, as in its only occurrence in the NT ( Luk_21:20 ), cf. Preisigke 4275 .7 (A.D. 216) Ἰουλίαν Δόμναν Σεβαστὴν τὴν μητέρα τῶν ἀν [ικήτων ] στρατοπέδων , and similarly 5075 .3 (time of Caracalla). In BGU III. 993 ii. 7 (B.C. 128 7) ἐν τῶι τοῦ βασιλέως στρατοπέδωι , the word seems to have its ordinary meaning camp.
