WHEN you hear the word glory, what comes to mind? The splendor of creation? (Psalm 19: 1.) The praises that the richest, the most intelligent or those who have done extraordinary things receive? In the Bible, the Hebrew word for "glory" conveys the idea of weight. In the past, coins were made with precious metals and their value depended on their weight; the more they weighed, the more valuable they were. Therefore, the word translated "glory" was used to refer to something valuable, admirable or impressive.
