μέγας

Strong’s: G3173

Associated OET lemmas: μεγάλος · μέγας

Notes: It is possible that μείζων[a] as an expression of degree differs somewhat in meaning from πλείων[b], even as in the positive degree a distinction seems to occur between μέγας[b] (78.2: μεγάλως / 78.2: μέγας / 78.2: μέγεθος) and πολύς[c] (78.3: πολύς). In the comparative forms, however, it seems difficult to substantiate this type of distinction.
