'Great' in the Bible

For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:

But on the base a man may put gold, silver, stones of great price, wood, dry grass, cut stems;

If we have been planting the things of the Spirit for you, does it seem a great thing for you to give us a part in your things of this world?

For a great and important door there is open to me, and there are a number of people against me.

But as for Apollos, the brother, I had a great desire for him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not his pleasure to come now; but he will come when he has a chance.
