three score and ten. The phrase is biblical, from Psalm 90:10, which advises that “The days of our years [our lifespan] are three score years and ten [seventy years].” The passage goes on to say, however, that “if by reason of strength they [our years] be fourscore [80] years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow, for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” See fourscore and seven. |
