(Thucydides, Plato, Aeschin, Dio Cass., others.) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of being "above" or "over" in Hebrew is often represented by words such as עַל (al, Strong's Hebrew 5921), which carries similar meanings of "upon," "over," or "against." Another related term is מַעַל (ma'al, Strong's Hebrew 4605), which also conveys the idea of "above" or "upward." These Hebrew terms parallel the Greek ἐπάνω in their usage to describe both physical and metaphorical elevation or authority. Usage: In the New Testament, ἐπάνω is used to describe physical position, such as being above or over something, as well as metaphorical superiority or authority. Context: The Greek word ἐπάνω appears in several contexts within the New Testament, illustrating both literal and figurative uses. It is often employed to describe physical positioning, such as in Matthew 5:14, where it is used in the phrase "A city on a hill cannot be hidden." Here, ἐπάνω emphasizes the elevated position of the city, making it visible to all.
