What does the Bible say about the glory of the Lord?

Answered in 5 sources

The Bible describes the glory of the Lord as manifest in Jesus Christ, who embodies God's goodness, grace, and sovereignty.

The glory of the Lord is prominently featured in Scripture, especially in the visions of Ezekiel, who saw the likeness of God's glory above the throne, which is fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Ezekiel 1:26 states that he saw 'the appearance of a man above it,' which is a direct reference to Christ. The glory of God is encapsulated in the person and work of Jesus, as seen in John 1:14 where it says, 'We beheld His glory.' This glory is not merely an abstract concept but is manifested in Christ's divine attributes, sovereignty, and the redemptive work He accomplished. The fear of the Lord, as seen through the visions of prophets, emphasizes the need to recognize and worship this glory in a way that transforms our understanding of God.
