"ἐπιούσιος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ἐπιούσιος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

Etymology: Unknown. Ultimately either from ἐπῐ́ (epí, “on”) + εἶμῐ (eîmi, “go, come”) or from ἐπῐ́ (epí, “on”) + εἰμῐ́ (eimí, “be”). Possible etymologies include: # From the phrase ἡ ἐπῐοῦσᾰ ἡμέρᾱ (hē epioûsa hēmérā, “the following day”), essentially breaking down into ἐπῐοῦσᾰ (epioûsa, “next, following”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), where ἐπῐοῦσᾰ (epioûsa) is the feminine nominative singular of ἐπῐών (epiṓn) the present participle of ἔπειμῐ (épeimi) (“follow, come after”) from ἐπ- (ep-, “on”) + εἶμῐ (eîmi, “go, come”). # From the phrase ἐπὶ τὴν οὖσᾰν ἡμέρᾱν (epì tḕn oûsan hēmérān, “for the actual/current day, lit. for the day being”), essentially breaking down into ἐπῐ- (epi-, “on”) + οὖσᾰ (oûsa, “being, actual”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), where οὖσᾰ (oûsa) is the feminine nominative singular of ὤν (ṓn), the present participle of εἰμῐ́ (eimí) (“be”). # From ἐπῐ- (epi-, “on”) + οὐσῐ́ᾱ (ousíā, “essence, existence, substance”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), cognate with ἐπουσῐ́ᾱ (epousíā, “surplus”) from ἐπών (epṓn, “remaining”), the present participle of ἔπειμῐ (épeimi) (“remain, be left over”) from ἐπ- (ep-, “on”) + εἰμῐ́ (eimí, “be”), but a separate Koine innovation of the roots to explain why the iota of ἐπῐ́ (epí) was not dropped. Not attested outside of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:11 and Luke 11:3, in the phrase τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπῐούσῐον (tòn árton hēmôn tòn epioúsion), traditionally rendered as "our daily bread".

Possible etymologies include:\n# From the phrase ἡ ἐπῐοῦσᾰ ἡμέρᾱ (hē epioûsa hēmérā, “the following day”), essentially breaking down into ἐπῐοῦσᾰ (epioûsa, “next, following”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), where ἐπῐοῦσᾰ (epioûsa) is the feminine nominative singular of ἐπῐών (epiṓn) the present participle of ἔπειμῐ (épeimi) (“follow, come after”) from ἐπ- (ep-, “on”) + εἶμῐ (eîmi, “go, come”).\n# From the phrase ἐπὶ τὴν οὖσᾰν ἡμέρᾱν (epì tḕn oûsan hēmérān, “for the actual/current day, lit. for the day being”), essentially breaking down into ἐπῐ- (epi-, “on”) + οὖσᾰ (oûsa, “being, actual”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), where οὖσᾰ (oûsa) is the feminine nominative singular of ὤν (ṓn), the present participle of εἰμῐ́ (eimí) (“be”).\n# From ἐπῐ- (epi-, “on”) + οὐσῐ́ᾱ (ousíā, “essence, existence, substance”) + -ῐος (-ios, adjectival suffix), cognate with ἐπουσῐ́ᾱ (epousíā, “surplus”) from ἐπών (epṓn, “remaining”), the present participle of ἔπειμῐ (épeimi) (“remain, be left over”) from ἐπ- (ep-, “on”) + εἰμῐ́ (eimí, “be”), but a separate Koine innovation of the roots to explain why the iota of ἐπῐ́ (epí) was not dropped.\nNot attested outside of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:11 and Luke 11:3, in the phrase τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπῐούσῐον (tòn árton hēmôn tòn epioúsion), traditionally rendered as \"our daily bread\".",
