Summary/Abstract: The present paper is the second part of a study on the lexical meaning developed by the adverbial phrases ”în veci(e)/ pe veci(e) (for ever/ forever)” as used in the epitaphs of the The Merry Cemetery in Săpânţa. The contexts in which they appear favour the decription of their lexical meanings in close connection with the semantics they have in the religious language of the Bible which we examine here.
