'Increased' in the Bible

Meanwhile God's Message continued to spread, and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem very greatly increased, and very many priests obeyed the faith.

For he was a good man, and was full of the Holy Spirit and of faith; and the number of believers in the Lord greatly increased.

Now Law was brought in later on, so that transgression might increase. But where sin increased, grace has overflowed;

For everything is for your sakes, in order that grace, being more richly bestowed because of the thanksgivings of the increased number, may more and more promote the glory of God.
