'Majority' in the Bible

and because of the prevalent disregard of God's law the love of the great majority will grow cold;

and as the harbour was inconvenient for wintering in, the majority were in favour of putting out to sea, to try whether they could get to Phoenix--a harbour on the coast of Crete facing north-east and south-east--to winter there.

In the case of such a person the punishment which was inflicted by the majority of you is enough.
