	Epiousios - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Epiousios is a Greek word used in the fourth petition of the Lord's Prayer, as it is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew and in the Gospel of Luke.
		Still other translations would focus attention away from ordinary bread and onto the Eucharist: epiousios has also been translated as "supersubstantial" or as something having to do with the very essence of things rather than their tangible nature, or as "supernatural".
		It has been proposed that "ho artos hemon ho epiousios", whatever it may mean, was used as a name for the Eucharist by the earliest Christians, even before the Gospel accounts of Jesus's life were written.

		In (An Indo-European language belonging to the West Germanic branch; the official language of Britain and the United States and most of the Commonwealth countries) English epiousios is usually translated as "daily", as in, "Give us this day our daily bread".
		But epiousios has no direct or simple English translation and there have been several interpretations of its meaning throughout the history of (A monotheistic system of beliefs and practices based on the Old Testament and the teachings of Jesus as embodied in the New Testament and emphasizing the role of Jesus as savior) Christianity.

	THE LORD
		The very phrase which has always been perceived by Christians to be crucial - determining its traditional position in the eucharistic liturgy between the eucharistic prayer and the communion - is to all intents and purposes untranslatable.
		So uncertain of the meaning was Jerome that his Vulgate translates 'epiousios' differently in the two renderings of the prayer in Matthew and Luke.
		It was, apparently, some time after he had completed his differing translations of epiousios in Matthew and Luke, that St Jerome came upon a passage in the apochryphal Gospel to the Hebrews.

	Epiousios
		On firmer grounds are those scholars who interpret New Testament Greek more as the expression of the common speech of all Greek-speaking persons of a given social and educational level, than as the result of a local intrusion of Semitic speech.
		This interpretation is supported by the mentioned passage of the Gospel of Luke (6: 38) to the effect that the measure used by God is “kalon pepiesmenon sesaleumenon uperekcunnomenon.” The last word is rendered by the Vulgate as supereffluentem; to this we may compare the rendering of epiousios as supersubstantialis.
		The explanation of epiousios is to be found in the normal meaning of the verb epeimi that when used with numerals means “to be added, to be above”; numerals and measures are normally treated identically in grammatical forms.

	The Lord's Prayer by Bruce L. Gerig
		Epiousios (Strong, #1966) appears in the NT only here in the Lord's Prayer (in both versions), and external evidence for the word's meaning is unclear.
		However, if epiousios relates to einai, then the meaning would be "for today" or, in a more general sense, "sufficient, necessary." The latter meaning, eliminating the redundancy of having both "day" and "daily" in the same request, seems preferrable
		– although in English translations, epiousios is usually translated (75%) as "daily bread" and less often (25%) with the idea of "bread we need." Epi ("upon," #1909) may imply something "superimposed" or it may be an empty prefix, adding nothing to the word's meaning.

	Thursday, May 13, 2004 - Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals, Inc
		There has been much uncertainty about the word translated "daily," as in "daily bread," since until very recently the word it translates (epiousios) was unknown in any ancient text except for the two versions of this prayer in Matthew and Luke.
		However, as Barclay reports in his commentary on Matthew, not long ago a papyrus was uncovered in which epiousios appeared on a woman's shopping list, as an obvious reminder to buy a necessary food item for the next day.
		Therefore, the meaning of the fourth petition is what has been assumed by most people all along, namely: Give us the necessities of life for this day (or the day immediately ahead).

		Each day brought different circumstances for Paul, and a lot of them were not fun; they were filled with deprivation and suffering.
		He was their "enough." And he heard the stories of how Jesus was revealed to them after his resurrection in the breaking of the bread.

		Once one takes this practical outlook, one can see how the idea of Divine Providence is linked with the methods used in the rationing of food, of which Greek inscriptions provide the most abundant evidence.
		Once one keeps in mind the metrological aspects of the idea of Providence, one can see the meaning of the word epiousios [daily] in the Lord's Prayer, a word on the interpretation of which an entire library has been written.

		As mere words, they can be as empty as what James calls “faith.” But by praying them as Jesus taught, we come to believe them, to understand and speak them more devotedly, and most importantly, to shape our lives according to them.
		According to the most common translations and the traditional way United Methodists pray the prayer, epiousios means “for the current day.” Artemidorus (a second-century AD interpreter of dreams) said that one loaf of bread was the daily requirement.
