Revelation 9:16

The number of riders in these cavalry armies was twenty thousand times ten thousand (200 million). I heard their number. [When John wrote this, the entire population of the earth was around 200 million and the Roman army 300,000. An army of 200 million horsemen must have been an unimaginable number which, if interpreted literally, could only become relevant when the earth's population increased to billions in the 20th century.]
