Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Diminutive of ψωμός (psōmos), meaning a morsel or a small piece of bread.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ψωμίον, the concept of a morsel or piece of bread can be related to Hebrew terms such as לֶחֶם (lechem, Strong's Hebrew 3899), meaning bread, or פַּת (pat, Strong's Hebrew 6595), meaning a piece or morsel of bread. These terms are used in the Old Testament to describe bread in various contexts, including meals and offerings. Usage: The term ψωμίον is used in the New Testament to describe a small piece of bread, particularly in the context of the Last Supper, where it signifies a gesture of sharing or intimacy. Context: The Greek word ψωμίον appears in the New Testament in the context of the Last Supper, specifically in the Gospel of John. It is used to describe the morsel of bread that Jesus dipped and gave to Judas Iscariot, indicating the one who would betray Him. This act is significant as it highlights the fulfillment of prophecy and the intimate nature of the betrayal. In John 13:26, Jesus says, "It is the one to whom I will give this morsel after I have dipped it." The giving of the ψωμίον to Judas is a poignant moment, symbolizing both the closeness of the relationship and the impending betrayal. The use of ψωμίον underscores the gravity of the moment, as sharing a morsel was a sign of friendship and trust, which Judas ultimately violated.
