Noah Webster's Dictionary 1. (a. & adv.) Four times; quadruple; as, a fourfold division. 2. (n.) Four times as many or as much. 3. (v. t.) To make four times as much or as many, as an assessment,; to quadruple. Int. Standard Bible Encyclopedia FOURFOLD for-fold: Occurs but twice in English Versions: 2 Samuel 12:6, "He shall restore the lamb fourfold"; and Luke 19:8 the King James Version, "If I have wrongfully exacted ought. I restore fourfold." From this statement of Zaccheus we are to understand that fourfold the amount of that which was stolen was the restoration the law required of a thief. This was the extreme penalty the law imposed. In some cases double the amount was to be restored (Exodus 22:4, 7); in others, a fifth of its value was added to the thing restored (Leviticus 6:5); still again, an amount equal to that taken was to be restored (1 Samuel 12:3).
