1: ἔτι

(Strong's #2089 — Adverb — eti — et'-ee )

"yet, as yet, still," is translated "moreover" in Acts 2:26; in Acts 21:28 , RV (AV, "further"); Hebrews 11:36 . See MORE , A, No. 2.

2: καί

(Strong's #2532 — Conjunction — kai — kahee )

and, is translated "moreover" in Acts 24:6; in the AV, where the RV has "and," Acts 19:26 .

3: δέ

(Strong's #1161 — Conjunction — de — deh )

a particle signifying "and" or "but," is translated "moreover" in Matthew 18:15 , AV (RV, "and"); Acts 11:12 (RV, "and"); Romans 5:20 , AV (RV, "but"); Romans 8:30 ("and"); 1 Corinthians 15:1 (RV, "now"); 2 Corinthians 1:23 (RV, "but"); 2 Peter 1:15 (RV, "yea").

4: ἀλλά

(Strong's #235 2532 — Conjunction — alla kai — al-lah' )

"but also, yea even," is translated "moreover" in Luke 24:22 , RV (AV, "yea, and"); in Luke 16:21 , AV, "moreover" (RV, "yea, even").

5: δέ

(Strong's #1161 2532 — Conjunction — de kai — deh )

"but also," is translated "moreover" in 1 Timothy 3:7 .

6: καί

(Strong's #2532 1161 — Conjunction — kai ... de — kahee )

is translated "moreover" in Hebrews 9:21 .

7: λοιπόν

(Strong's #3063 — Adverb Neuter — loipon — loy-pon' )

the neuter of the adjective loipos, "the rest," used adverbially, most usually rendered "finally," is translated "moreover" in 1 Corinthians 4:2 (some mss. have ho de loipon, lit., "but what is left," AV, "moreover," for hode loipon, "here, moreover," as in the RV). See FINALLY.

Note: In 1 Corinthians 10:1 , AV, gar, "for," is translated "moreover" (RV, "for"); the RV is important here, as it introduces a reason for what has preceded in ch. 9, whereas "moreover" may indicate that a new subject is being introduced; this incorrect rendering tends somewhat to dissociate the two passages, whereas gar connects them intimately.
