uses of the word “more” occur in connection with other words, especially in the
comparative degree. The phrase “more than” translates certain prepositions and particles:
in Rom. 1:25,
KJV
,

RV

than”): cf. Rom. 12:3
$

Philem. 21,
KJV
, “more than” (
RV
, “beyond”). In Mark 14:5,
KJV
,
, “above,” is
translated “more than” (
RV
, “above”). In Luke 15:7 the particle , “than,” is necessarily
rendered “more than”; cf. Luke 17:2 and 1 Cor. 14:19, “rather than.” In Mark 8:14, the
conjunction , “if,” with the negative , lit., “if not,” signifying “except,” is translated
“more than (one loaf).”

3. (
!
, 1161), a particle signifying “and” or “but,” is translated “moreover” in

KJV
(
RV
, “and”); Acts 11:12 (

KJV

adverbially, most usually rendered “finally,” is translated “moreover” in 1 Cor. 4:2 (some
mss. have
, lit., “but what is left,”
KJV
, “moreover,” for
, “here,
moreover,” as in the
RV
). See
FINALLY
.
Note:
In 1 Cor. 10:1,
KJV
,
, “for,” is translated “moreover” (
RV
, “for”); the
RV
is
important here, as it introduces a reason for what has preceded in ch. 9, whereas
“moreover” may indicate that a new subject is being introduced; this incorrect rendering
tends somewhat to dissociate the two passages, whereas
connects them intimately.
