/* Eleven */ marginal note on Mt 6:11 "Give us this day our daily bread."
::Leviticus 19:18<br>Psalm 139:21-22<br>Amos 5:15a
</small>
 
"'''Give us today our ''daily bread''.'''" <small>
:Matthew 6:11
:The actual meaning of the phrase commonly translated from the Greek '''επιούσιον''' "''epiousion''" (uncertainly as) "'''''daily bread'''''" is obscure.
 
:The [[Douay-Rheims Bible]] reads "''supersubstantial bread''", from the [[Vulgate|Latin Vulgate]] "''super substantialis''". This reading, more than the common reading "daily bread", appears to some [[Exegesis|exegetes]] as the more probable reading of the Greek '''επιούσιον''' "''epiousion''". '''EPI - επι''' (''beyond, outside, above'') + '''OUSION - ούσιον''', from '''OUSIA - ούσία''', from (''substance, property, possessions''), from the feminine '''OUSA - ούσα''' (''being, having'') — Strong's numbers ''3776'' and ''5607''.
 
:This strongly suggests a more than material food, a kind of supernatural nourishment, heavenly bread (as expressed in the hymn phrase based on this same text from Matthew 6:11: "''bread of heaven, feed me 'til I want no more – here's my cup, fill it up and make me whole''"). <br> Compare John 6:31; Exodus 16:4, 15; Numbers 1:8; Nehemiah 9:15; Psalm 78:24; 105:40.
