KJV Word of the Day:









ABA'SED, participle passive Reduced to a low state, humbled, degraded.
In heraldry, it is used of the wings of eagles, when the tops are turned downwards towards the point of the shield; or when the wings are shut, the natural way of bearing them being spread, with the top pointing to the chief of the angle.
First occurrence in the Bible(KJV): Matthew 23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
