G4057 G4057
Exceedingly, abundantly, all the more; an adverb expressing degree beyond the ordinary or expected.
This adverb intensifies actions or states beyond normal measure, expressing 'exceedingly,' 'all the more,' or 'far more abundantly.' It often marks escalation: the crowd cries out all the more for crucifixion (Matt 27:23; Mark 15:14), the disciples are exceedingly astonished at Jesus' teaching on wealth (Mark 10:26), and Peter insists all the more vehemently that he will not deny the Lord (Mark 14:31). The Spanish 'más-abundantemente' and 'más-aún' capture the comparative force, while German 'umso-mehr' highlights the intensifying 'all the more' nuance that pervades its NT usage.
Senses
1. exceedingly, all the more — Expressing a degree that surpasses the ordinary or expected — 'exceedingly,' 'all the more,' 'beyond measure.' In narrative contexts it marks emotional or rhetorical escalation, as when the crowd shouts 'all the more' (Mark 15:14) or the disciples are 'exceedingly astonished' (Mark 10:26). Spanish 'excesivamente' and German 'umso-mehr' together capture both the absolute and comparative dimensions of this intensifier. 17×
