G4121–πλεονάζω–pleonazō

Now Law was brought in later on, so that transgression might increase. But where sin increased, grace has overflowed;

πλεονάσῃ pleonasē “may abound”ἐπλεόνασεν epleonasen “abounded”

To what conclusion, then, shall we come? Are we to persist in sinning in order that the grace extended to us may be the greater?

πλεονάσῃ; pleonasē “may abound?”

For everything is for your sakes, in order that grace, being more richly bestowed because of the thanksgivings of the increased number, may more and more promote the glory of God.

πλεονάσασα pleonasasa “having abounded”

Even as it is written, "He who gathered much had not too much, and he who gathered little had not too little."

ἐπλεόνασεν epleonasen “did abound”

Not that I crave for gifts from you, but I do want to see abundant fruit bring you honour.

πλεονάζοντα pleonazonta “is abounding”

and as for you, may the Lord teach you to love one another and all men, with a growing and a glowing love, resembling our love for you.

πλεονάσαι pleonasai “would make to increase”

Unceasing thanks are due from us to God on your behalf, brethren. They are appropriate because your faith is growing greatly, and the love of every one of you for all the others goes on increasing.

πλεονάζει pleonazei “is abounding”

If these things exist in you, and continually increase, they prevent your being either idle or unfruitful in advancing towards a full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

πλεονάζοντα pleonazonta “abounding”
