What does HEAVEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
The place believed in many religions to be the home of God and the blessed, or any state of perfect happiness.
In religious teaching heaven is the dwelling of God and of the good after death. Older English also used the word, and still does in the plural, for the sky and the great arch above the earth where the sun and stars appear. In everyday talk a heaven is any place or moment of great comfort, which is why a quiet beach can be called heaven on earth. The word also appears in mild exclamations such as good heavens.
