Strong's Lexicon endoxazomai: To be glorified, to be held in honor Original Word: ἐνδοξάζομαι Word Origin: Derived from ἔνδοξος (endoxos), meaning "glorious" or "honorable," which itself comes from ἐν (en, "in") and δόξα (doxa, "glory"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "endoxazomai," the concept of glory is often expressed in Hebrew by the word כָּבוֹד (kabod), Strong's Hebrew #3519, which denotes weightiness, splendor, or honor. Usage: The verb "endoxazomai" is used in the New Testament to describe the state of being glorified or honored. It often refers to the glorification of God or Christ, as well as the honor bestowed upon believers through their relationship with God. The passive form indicates that the subject is receiving glory or honor from an external source, typically God. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, honor and glory were highly valued, often associated with public recognition and status. In the biblical context, however, glory is primarily attributed to God and is a reflection of His divine nature and majesty. The concept of being glorified in the New Testament is closely tied to the idea of sharing in God's glory through faith in Jesus Christ, contrasting with worldly notions of honor.
