It can refer to physical weight or burdens, as well as the figurative weight of responsibility, honor, or glory. In the context of the Bible, it often conveys the idea of something substantial or significant, whether it be a physical load or a moral or spiritual burden.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of weight was often associated with value and importance. For example, gold and silver were measured by weight, and a person's honor or reputation could be described in terms of "weightiness." The idea of bearing a burden was also significant in a society where physical labor was a daily reality, and the metaphorical use of "kobed" to describe spiritual or moral burdens would have resonated deeply with the people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3513.htm">kabad</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>heaviness, mass<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>dense (1), heavy (1), mass (1), press (1).<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">כֹּ֫בֶד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>heaviness</b></font>, <em>weight</em> of a stone <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/27-3.htm">Proverbs 27:3</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <em>mass, abundance</em>, of corpses <a href="/interlinear/nahum/3-3.htm">Nahum 3:3</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>3</b></font> <em>vehemence</em>, of war <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/21-15.htm">Isaiah 21:15</a>, of storm <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/30-27.htm">Isaiah 30:27</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>weight, multitude, vehemence <p>From <a href="/hebrew/3513.htm">kabad</a>;
