Divine Glory

[Original article in French]

GERMAINE DESNOS

In Biblical texts, among the words constantly found associated with the name of the Lord is "glory," or one of its derivatives.

Praying for a definite vision of God, Moses asked, "I beseech thee, shew me thy glory." And the Lord answered, "I will make all my goodness pass before thee." Later, perceiving the great fact that whatever proceeds from God cannot be less glorious than God Himself, the Psalmist declared regarding man, "Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour."
