Characters of the person, which are specific to that person, So the article the should be used.
The = most Specific.
A= not Specific.

The meek and humble is correct, then why there is 'the' before 'humble' too. Is it 'the meek and the humble' or 'the meek and humble'? Please explain in detail.

The line describes that the person who is humble and meek can inherit from the earth. It refers to character, so I think 'the' should come.

Since meek and humble refer to group of people ...the is used.
