Glory @ (Heb. kabhod; Gr. doxa). (1.) Abundance, wealth, treasure, and hence honour Psalms:49:12); glory Genesis:31:1; Matthew:4:8; Revelation:21:24-26). (2.) Honour, dignity (kjvKings:3:13; Hebrews:2:7 1Peter:1:24); of God Psalms:19:1 Psalms:29:1); of the mind or heart Genesis:49:6; Psalms:7:5; Acts:2:46). (3.) Splendour, brightness, majesty Genesis:45:13; Isaiah:4:5; Acts:22:11; 2Corinthians:3:7); of Jehovah Isaiah:59:19 Isaiah:60:1; 2Thessalonians:1:9). (4.)

The phrase "Give glory to God" Joshua:7:19; Jeremiah:13:16) is a Hebrew idiom meaning, "Confess your sins." The words of the Jews to the blind man, "Give God the praise" John:9:24), are an adjuration to confess. They are equivalent to, "Confess that you are an impostor," "Give God the glory by speaking the truth;" for they denied that a miracle had been wrought.
