  1. no longer

    The extension of time up to a point but not beyond

    Examples

    Matthew 21:19 And seeing a lone fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it except leaves alone; and He said to it, “No longer shall there ever be any fruit from you.” And at once the fig tree withered.

    Mark 1:45 But he went out and began to proclaim it freely and to spread the news around, to such an extent that Jesus could no longer publicly enter a city, but stayed out in unpopulated areas; and they were coming to Him from everywhere.

    Mark 2:2 And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer space, not even near the door; and He was speaking the word to them.

How it’s used

Every occurrence, grouped by the words it is grammatically related to.

When two words share a role, as in “Paul and Barnabas said”, the verse appears under each, so a section’s counts can add up to more than the number of occurrences.
