The KJV renders 16 different Hebrew and Greek words as “upon”
What it means
{above, over, upon, or against (yet always in this last relation with a downward aspect) in a great variety of applications}
(Aramaic) corresponding to H5921 (עַל)
How the KJV renders it
about, against, concerning, for, therefore, from, there, upon, into
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
