belonging to the Lord, Lord’s (derivative of κύριος[a] ‘Lord,’ 12.9) pertaining to the Lord A strictly literal rendering of ‘the Lord’s Supper’ might simply mean ‘the supper which the Lord ate,’ implying that no one else participated. Therefore, it may be necessary in some languages to translate ‘the meal at which the Lord presided’ or ‘the meal which the Lord had for his disciples’ or ‘the meal which the Lord ate with his followers.’

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
κυριακός, which occurs in 1 Cor 112°, Rev 11°, is described by Grimm-Thayer as ‘‘a bibl. and eccles. word,” but exx. of it from the inscrr. = ‘‘ Imperial” are given by LS, and the same usage is amply supported by our documents. The following instances may suffice—P Lond 328° (A.D. 163) (= IL. p. 75) a camel is provided εἰς κυριακὰς χρείας τῶν ἀπὸ Bepvelkns γεινο(μένων) ποριῶν (7. πορειῶν), ‘for Imperial service on the caravans that travel from Bernice,” P Oxy IIT. 474%! (A.D. 184 ?) τοῦ κυριακοῦ χρήματος, “the Imperial revenue,’’ P Giss 1. 488 (A.D, 202-3) κατὰ κυριακῆς yfis (see the editor’s note), P Oxy XII. 1461! (a.p. 222) ἐν κτήσει κυριακῇ, “in Imperial ownership,” BGU I. 115 (iii/A. D.) εἰς τὸν κυριακὸν λόγον, “into the Imperial treasury,” and 74. 266° (a.p. 216-7) εἰς τὰς ἐν Συρίᾳ kvpifa]kas ὑπηρεσίας, ‘‘ for the Imperial service in Syria.’’ The earliest known ex. of this official use of the word is apparently OG/S 6695 (A.D. 68) εἰδὼς τοῦτο συμφέρειν Kal ταῖς κυριακαῖς ψήφοις (‘the Imperial finances”’),18 %o<i> τῶν ὀφειλόντων εἰς τὸν κυριακὸν λόγον (‘the Imperial treasury”) : see Deissmann ZAZ p. 362 ff., where attention is also drawn to the significant use of Σεβαστή, as denoting “* Emperor’s Day ”’ in this same inscr., and the conjecture is thrown out “that the distinctive title ‘Lord’s Day’ may have been connected with conscious feelings of protest against the cult of the Emperor with its ‘Emperor’s Day’”’ (p. 364) ; cf. also Encycl. Brit. 2813 ff., and Wilcken Ostr. i., p. 812. The word κυριακός had been previously discussed by Deissmann in BS p. 217 ff., and to his citations from the inserr. we may add PAS ii. 14 (Makuf, ancient Heraclea, in Caria) ἀποτίσει τῷ κυριακῴ [φ]σκῳ, 20. 21 (same place) ἀπο[τ]είσει [τ]ῷ κυριακῷ φίσκῳ (cited by Hatch JAZ xxvii, 2, p. 138 f.). The word is used of a church-building in the iv/a.p. P Oxy VI. 903" ἀπελθοῦσα [et]s τὸ κυριακὸν ἐν Σαμβαθώ, “when I had gone out to the church at Sambatho”’ (Edd.), cf. 31, A Syracusan inscr., Kazde/ 737—no date, runs— “Hpépa κυριακῇ δεσμευθεῖσα ἀλύτοις καμάτοις ἐπὶ κοίτης, ἧς καὶ τοὔνομα Κυριακή, ἡμέρᾳ κυριακῇ παντὸς βίου λύσιν
