Usage
The Greek word "praos" is used in the New Testament to describe a quality of character that is gentle, humble, and meek. It is often associated with a disposition that is not easily provoked and is patient under suffering. In a biblical context, meekness is not weakness but rather strength under control, reflecting a trust in God and a submission to His will.
