Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root יָתַר (yatar), which means "to remain" or "to be left over."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4052 (περισσεύω, perisseuō): To abound, to be in excess. Usage: This word is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe something that is more than necessary or in excess. It often conveys the idea of abundance or surplus. Context: יוֹתֵר (yoter) appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often highlighting the concept of excess or surplus. It is used to describe situations where there is more than what is required or expected. For example, in the context of offerings or possessions, it can indicate an abundance that goes beyond the norm. The term underscores the idea of having more than enough, whether in material wealth, offerings, or other resources. In the Berean Standard Bible, this concept is reflected in passages where the abundance or surplus is noted, emphasizing the provision or blessing that exceeds basic needs.
