Strong's Lexicon kabowd: Glory, honor, splendor, wealth Original Word: כָּבוֹד Word Origin: Derived from the root כָּבֵד (kaved), meaning "to be heavy" or "to be honored." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's G1391 (doxa): Often translated as "glory" in the New Testament, reflecting the honor and majesty of God and Christ. Usage: The Hebrew word "kabowd" primarily denotes the concept of "glory" or "honor." It is used to describe the weightiness or significance of something or someone, often in terms of reputation, wealth, or splendor. In the context of God, "kabowd" refers to His majestic presence and the manifestation of His divine attributes. It can also imply the honor and respect due to individuals or objects of significance. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, "glory" was often associated with wealth, power, and reputation. The concept of "kabowd" in the Hebrew Bible reflects these cultural values, emphasizing the importance of honor and respect in social and religious contexts. The glory of God, as described in the Bible, is a central theme, representing His divine presence and authority. The Israelites understood God's glory as both a visible manifestation, such as the cloud and fire in the wilderness, and an intrinsic attribute of His nature.
