Meaning

Height <1,,5311, hupsos>

"a summit, top," is translated "height" in Eph 3:18, where it may refer either to "the love of Christ" or to "the fullness of God;" the two are really inseparable, for they who are filled into the fullness of God thereby enter appreciatively into the love of Christ, which "surpasseth knowledge;" in Rev 21:16, of the measurement of the heavenly Jerusalem. See ESTATE, HIGH.

<2,,5313, hupsoma>

more concrete than No. 1, is used (a) of "a height," as a mountain or anything definitely termed a "height," Rom 8:39 (metaphorically); (b) of "a high thing" lifted up as a barrier or in antagonistic exaltation, 2Co 10:5. See HIGH. Cp. hupsoo, "to exalt."
