Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4052 (perisseuō): To abound, to be in abundance - G5242 (huperochē): Superiority, excellence Usage: The Hebrew word "yithrah" conveys the idea of abundance or excellence. It is often used to describe something that is superior or surpassing in quality or quantity. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can refer to material abundance, moral excellence, or superiority in status or power. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, abundance was often seen as a sign of divine blessing.
