         Comments: ὑπεραίρω[b] involves two distinct types of components: (1) the development of opposition, and (2) the psychological basis for such opposition, namely, pride. In almost all instances it will be necessary to represent the two complementary components by a phrasal equivalent, for example, ‘to be proud and to rise up against’ or ‘because of one’s pride, to rise up in opposition to.’
