ὑπερβάλλω G5234
Excessively, beyond all measure; an intensive adverb emphasizing extraordinary degree
Paul uses this emphatic adverb in 2 Corinthians 11:23 to intensify his claim of suffering more than the false apostles who challenged his authority. It's one of several 'hyper-' compounds Paul employs to stress the extraordinary nature of his apostolic labors and afflictions. The adverb pushes the comparison beyond normal bounds—he hasn't just suffered more, but excessively, extraordinarily more. Cross-linguistic renderings consistently emphasize this excessive quality.

1. sense 1 — In 2 Cor 11:23, Paul boasts 'foolishly' about his apostolic credentials, claiming he has served 'excessively' more than his opponents—more labors, beatings, imprisonments, dangers. The adverb intensifies the comparison to an almost absurd degree, which fits Paul's rhetorical strategy of 'boasting' in weakness. Spanish 'sobremanera' (exceedingly) and French 'excessivement' (excessively) both capture this sense of going far beyond normal measure. German 'übermäßig' (excessively) similarly stresses the extraordinary degree of Paul's sufferings. 1×
