By: Steve Shirley. A: The usual definition of meekness in the Bible is strength under control.. The world defines strong people as those who are assertive, take charge, proud, self-sufficient, self-reliant, and independent. A meek person is the opposite of these things, therefore, many people associate meekness with weakness.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earthâThis promise to the meek is but a repetition of Ps 37:11; only the word which our Evangelist renders the meek, after the Septuagint, is the same which we have found so often translated the poor, showing how closely allied these two features of character are.
