At one stroke / At the same time

At one stroke / At the same time

Figuratively: all at once.

("If one has relations with his sister, his father's sister, and his mother's sister at one stroke, what is the law—one liability for all, or one for each? They said to me: We did not hear (a ruling), but we have heard: if one has relations with his five menstruating wives at the same time, he is liable for each and every one."—Kritot 3:7. Similarly: "If one performed all the primary labors of Shabbat at one stroke, he is liable for each and every one."—Tosefta Shabbat (Lieberman), Chapter 8)
