AI Summary
μέγας means great — large in physical size, or great in degree, intensity, or importance.
In its most basic use it describes physical size, measure, or extent — a large stone, a great fish, a large sword, a great city 1. In this sense it functions as the opposite of small 3.
It also describes intensity or degree, applied to things like power, fear, love, wind, a loud cry, bright light, a high fever, or great affliction 13; in this way it can describe strong winds, strong feelings, or loud sounds 3.
It further describes greatness of rank or importance, whether of persons — such as God or a great deity — or of things, such as a great sin or a great mystery 1. It can also serve as a title marking someone of special standing or greatness 3.
More broadly it is used to mean big in a very wide sense, literally or figuratively, and can be translated as exceedingly, great(est), high, large, loud, mighty, sore (afraid), strong, or of a person advanced in years 2. Dodson's gloss simply gives large, great 4.
