to/for/by much (amount)
| Root | πολύς (polys) |
| Core Meanings | much, many, great (in quantity or degree), abundant, extensive |
| Semantic Range | much, a great amount, greatly, by far, considerably, abundantly, to a great degree |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, πολύς language emphasizes abundance—whether of mercy, grace, suffering, or people—highlighting divine generosity, overwhelming magnitude, or marked contrast by degree. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective πολύς; dative neuter singular (Gr,RI,,,,DNS). Functions substantivally here, expressing quantity or degree in the dative case (often instrumental or degree of difference). |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma πολύς denotes great quantity or degree. The form πολλῷ is dative neuter singular, which can function as dative of means, degree, or advantage; thus "to/for/by much (amount)" preserves both the core quantitative sense and the grammatical force of the dative neuter singular. |
