Beyond

* In addition to the preposition huper, "over," rendered "beyond" in 2Co 8:3, the following adverbs have this meaning:

epi, "upon," and ekeina, "those," the word "parts" being understood, is used in Act 7:43.

"on the other side, across," is used with the definite article, signifying the regions "beyond," the opposite shore, Mat 8:18 etc. With verbs of going it denotes direction towards and "beyond" a place, e.g., Joh 10:40. It frequently indicates "beyond," of locality, without a verb of direction, Mat 16:5, Mar 10:1, RV; Joh 1:28, Joh 3:26. See FARTHER, SIDE.

Note: In 2Co 10:14, the verb huperekteino, "to stretch overmuch," is so rendered in the RV, for AV, "... beyond our measure." In 2Co 10:16 the adverb huperekeina, "beyond," is used as a preposition.
