These terms are used in the Old Testament to describe both physical multiplication and the increase of qualities or conditions. Usage: The verb πλεονάζω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of increasing or abounding, often in the context of spiritual or moral qualities, such as love, grace, or sin. Context: The Greek verb πλεονάζω appears in several New Testament passages, conveying the idea of growth or increase. It is often used metaphorically to describe the flourishing of spiritual attributes or conditions. For instance, in Romans 5:20, Paul writes, "But where sin increased, grace increased all the more," illustrating the superabundance of God's grace in response to human sinfulness. Similarly, in Philippians 1:9, Paul expresses his desire for the Philippians' love to "abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight."
