Does anyone know the etymology of kurios? I'm also curious on how it was
originally used before the LXX appropriated it for the name YHWH. It doesn't
seem to parallel the Latin dominus (from domus, house) nor does it seem to
be the original word for "master" such as master of slaves. Anyone have a
clue?
