It is often used to describe the splendor and majesty of God, as well as the nobility or grandeur of certain individuals or objects. The term emphasizes the inherent dignity and honor associated with the subject.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, concepts of glory and majesty were deeply intertwined with the divine nature of God. The Israelites viewed God as the ultimate source of glory and majesty, and these attributes were often ascribed to Him in worship and praise. The use of "adar" in the Hebrew Bible reflects this cultural understanding, highlighting the reverence and awe that the people of Israel held for their God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>wide, great<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>glorious (1), majestic (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">אָדַר</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> (poetry) <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>wide, great</b></font>, (thence) high, noble (?
