It conveys the idea of something flourishing or expanding in a remarkable or extraordinary manner. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe spiritual growth or the increase of faith and love among believers.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, growth and increase were often associated with agricultural metaphors, reflecting the agrarian society of the time. The concept of growth was not only physical but also applied to virtues, knowledge, and spiritual maturity. The prefix ὑπέρ (huper) intensifies the action, suggesting a divine or supernatural element to the growth, aligning with the Christian understanding of spiritual development as empowered by God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5228.htm">huper</a> and <a href="/greek/837.htm">auxanó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to increase beyond measure<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>greatly enlarged (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5232: ὑπεραυξάνω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ὑπεραυξάνω</span></span>; <span class="accented">to increase beyond measure; to grow exceedingly</span>: <a href="/interlinear/2_thessalonians/1-3.htm">2 Thessalonians 1:3</a>.
