2013. 'I will make you more and more fruitful' means endless fruitfulness of good. This is clear from the meaning of 'being fruitful' as having reference to good, dealt with already in 43, 55, 913, 983. And because the expression 'more and more' is used and the Lord is the subject, endless fruitfulness is meant.
