kurios
kurios Greek, ‘Sir’, ‘master’, ‘owner’ (e.g. Matt. 25: 11), but also used in
LXX to translate Hebrew
Yahweh. In Christian speech it was applied to Jesus as ‘Lord’, being raised above the human level (e.g. Rom. 14: 8–9) and Paul designates the brothers of Jesus as ‘the brothers of the Lord’ (1 Cor. 9: 5; Gal. 1: 19), which seems to point to the Jesus of the earthly ministry as nevertheless a more than human being. According to
Josephus the Jews refused to call the Roman emperor ‘Lord’ (
kurios), because this was the title reserved for God. Paul, however, transfers to Jesus passages in the OT (e.g. Isa. 45: 23) which refer to God: it is to the Lord Jesus Christ that every knee shall now bow and whom every tongue shall confess (Phil. 2: 10 f.).
The liturgical form
Kyrie eleison (‘Lord, have mercy’) became a litany in Christian worship from the 4th cent.
CE.
