The meaning of Concerning in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)

kon-surn'-ing:

The Revised Version (British and American) makes frequent changes, such as "for," "as for," "from," "about," for "concerning"; "concerning" instead of "for," "of," "over," "in," "against," etc. Some of the other changes are, "unto that which is good" for "concerning" (Romans 16:19), "concerning" instead of "because of" (Jeremiah 23:9), for "the miracle of" (Mark 6:52); for "with" (Mark 10:41), for "of the Lord" (Acts 18:25), "concerning Jesus" (diferent text), "by way of disparagement" (II Corinthians 11:21), instead of "concerning reproach"; "Why askest thou me concerning that which is good?" (Matthew 19:17) instead of "Why callest thou me good?" (different text; see the Revised Version, margin).
