ὑπεραυξάνω [page 652] Compounds of ὑπέρ are a marked feature of the Pauline vocabulary, especially in the second chronological group of the Epp. : see Ellicott ad Eph_3:20 , and Lightfoot Notes , pp. 46 f., 294. The present verb is found intransitively in 2Th_1:3 (Vg supercrescit , Beza vehementer augescat , Wycl. ouer wexith ) : the lexicons cite Callisthenes ap. Stobaeus Flor. 100, 14.
