Exegesis
The prepositional phrase epi oros mega kai hupsēlon {ἐπὶ ὄρος μέγα καὶ ὑψηλόν | epí ó-ros mé-ga kai hyp-sē-lón} employs epi with the accusative to indicate placement “onto” the mountain, while the coordinated adjectives emphasize both its magnitude and height.
In context — Revelation 21:10
And he conveyed me in the Spirit onto a lofty and expansive mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God .
