English term or phrase: supracultural

hi everyone,

can somebody tell me what "supracultural"means exactly?

This is for a religion book:

"The main goal of this manual is to present supracultural principles for the reader to apply in his specific context. Supracultural principles are the mandates of Scripture which the church is to follow."

many thanks in advance
