  4. The Definition of Glory • 3. Δοξα =The wealth of a king. • Ephesians 1:18, KJV, “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,”

  5. The Definition of Glory • 4. Δοξα =The justice and grace of a king. • Ephesians 1:6, KJV, “To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.” • In this case “glory” means magnificence, beauty, wonder, greatness, etc. • This is grace only a king can give. • Only a ruler, president, governor, or king can pardon a person of crimes. • In heaven only the King can pardon sins for eternity.

  6. The Definition of Glory • 5. Δοξα =Magnificence, splendor, beauty (as of a king), said of the fine clothing of a king. The beauty of Christ is greater than the glory of Solomon. • Matthew 12:42, KJV, “… and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.” • Matthew 6:29 KJV, “And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these [lilies of the field].”

  7. The Definition of Glory • 6. Δοξα =Fame, renown, honor. Δοξα = the honor, the honesty, and the holiness of God. • Romans 3:23 KJV, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” • Romans 5:2, KJV, “By whom [Jesus] also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.”

  8. The Definition of Glory • 7. Δοξαζω, doxadzo, = 1. to praise, to honor, to magnify. • 2. To clothe in splendor, to glorify. • 3. To bring into glory as a king, to crown as king. • 4. To respect, esteem, and obey. • The whole life of Jesus glorifies [Δοξαζω] the Father, John 8:54; 12:28; 13:31; 17:1, 4. • The Father glorifies the Son working miracles through Him, John 13:31f; 14:13; 17:1.

  9. The Definition of Glory (kabod) • כבוד, kabod, comes from “kabed,” “to be heavy.” Kabod[כבוד] means to be heavy laden with riches, power, or position.
