Compounds of ὑπέρ are a marked feature of the Pauline vocabulary, especially in the second chronological group of the Epp. : see Ellicott ad Ephesians 3:20, and Lightfoot Notes, pp. 46 f., 294. The present verb is found intransitively in 2 Thessalonians 1:3 (Vg supercrescit, Beza vehementer augescat, Wycl. ouer wexith) : the lexicons cite Callisthenes ap. Stobaeus Flor. 100, 14.
