    DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:οὐρανός}[b] heaven, {D:1.11}) related to or located in heaven
    Glosses: ['heavenly', 'in heaven', 'pertaining to heaven']
    Comments: The derivatives οὐράνιος and {L:ἐπουράνιος}[b] are essentially equivalent to semantic compounds in that they combine a semantic element of heaven as a celestial abode with another semantic element specifying location or relationship. Frequently such terms are translated as ‘in heaven’ or ‘from heaven’ or ‘belonging to heaven.’

    DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: heavenly army) a large group or throng of angels
    Glosses: ['throng of angels', 'ranks of angels']
    Comments: There may be distinct objections to speaking of στρατιὰ οὐράνιος as being a ‘heavenly army,’ though undoubtedly in earlier times the thought of angels being God’s military force would have been quite appropriate. Therefore, in place of some expression which may refer to an army or military unit, it may be possible to translate στρατιὰ οὐράνιος as simply ‘many, many angels’ or ‘row after row of angels.’
