For example, I recently was reading a commentary on Matthew 5:5 and it was explained that the Greek word for "meek" (praÿs, pronounced prah-ooce)--as in "the meek will inherit the Earth"--was used by Greeks to mean, for example, a soldier who was potentially dangerous but kept his sword sheathed.
Meekness like that of Christ who could have ripped the world apart with one word but went quietly to the Cross.
Bible commentator David Guzik says this about the word "meek":
It is impossible to translate this ancient Greek word praus (meek) with just one English word. It has the idea of the proper balance between anger and indifference; of a powerful personality properly controlled; and of humility. SourceAs they say, context is everything.
Moses was also meek.
