What does the word abounding mean in the Bible?
The word translated “abound” (2 Peter 1:8) is from the Greek word meaning “to superabound, to exist in abundance, to increase, be augmented” (Thayer, p. 516). Therefore, the thought is that one not just possess the qualities of 2 Peter 1:5-7, but that those qualities develop to their fullest potential in life.Jan 29, 2020
