It is often translated as "further" or "farther" in English. In the New Testament, it is used to describe a progression or movement away from a point of reference.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, distance was a significant concept, both in terms of physical travel and metaphorical separation. The use of comparative forms like πορρώτερον reflects the importance of gradation and progression in Greek thought. Understanding spatial relationships was crucial in a society where travel was often on foot or by animal, and where philosophical and theological ideas frequently employed spatial metaphors.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>cptv. adverb from <a href="/greek/4206.htm">porró</a>, q.v.<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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>farther. <p>Adverb comparative of <a href="/greek/4206.htm">porrho</a>; further, i.e. A greater distance -- farther. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/4206.htm">porrho</a> <div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><a href="/greek/porne__4204.htm">πόρνῃ — 4 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porne_n_4204.htm">πόρνην — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porne_s_4204.htm">πόρνης — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porno_n_4204.htm">πορνῶν — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/pornoi_4205.htm">πόρνοι — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/pornois_4205.htm">πόρνοις — 4 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/pornos_4205.htm">πόρνος — 3 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/pornous_4205.htm">πόρνους — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porro__4206.htm">πόρρω — 3 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porro_teron_4206.htm">πορρώτερον — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porphuran_4209.htm">πορφύραν — 3 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porphuras_4209.htm">πορφύρας — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porphuroun_4210.htm">πορφυροῦν — 4 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/porphuropo_lis_4211.htm">πορφυρόπωλις — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posakis_4212.htm">ποσάκις — 3 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posei_4213.htm">πόσει — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posis_4213.htm">πόσις — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posa_4214.htm">πόσα — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posai_4214.htm">πόσαι — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/posas_4214.htm">πόσας — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/greek/4207.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="4207"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="4207" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/greek/4209.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="4209"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="4209" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
