'Eighty eight' in the Bible

And the number of them, with their brethren that were instructed in the songs of Jehovah, all of them skilful, was two hundred and eighty-eight.

The men of Bethlehem and Netophah, a hundred and eighty-eight.

Then he measured the wall; it was two hundred and eighty-eight feet, as men measure, that is as the angel measured.
