Glory (religion) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Glory (religion) Glory (from the Latin ''gloria'', "fame, renown") is used to denote the manifestation of God's presence in the Christian religious tradition. Divine glory is an important motif throughout Christian theology, where God is regarded as the ''most glorious'' being, and it is considered that human beings are created in the Image of God and can share or participate, imperfectly, in divine glory as image-bearers. (Thus Christians are instructed to "let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.") ==Etymology== "Glory" is one of the most common words in scripture. In the Old Testament, the word is used to translate several Hebrew words, including ''Hod'' (הוד) and ''kabod'', and in the New Testament it is used to translate the Greek word ''doxa'' (δόξα). The Hebrew word ''kabod'' (K-B-D) originally means "weight" or "heaviness." The same word is then used to express importance, honor, and majesty. Greek versions of the Hebrew Bible translated this concept with the word ''δόξα'', which was then used extensively in the New Testament as well. ''Doxa'' originally means "judgment, opinion", and by extension, "good reputation, honor". Assuming that these various words and uses should refer to a single underlying concept, St. Augustine renders it as ''clara notitia cum laude'', "brilliant celebrity with praise".〔(The Catholic Encyclopedia, "Glory" )〕
