👉 Measure up, in the Bible, refers to a measure of effort or success. It's an active verb meaning "to push out" or "to run for." The word was used figuratively as a metaphor for being in a position where you have the responsibility and power to make decisions. In Hebrews 12:4, it means "to weigh in upon ourselves with full measure," suggesting that we need to consider all aspects of our lives before making choices or taking actions.
