Epichoregia denotes provision in the body’s mutual support and in connection with the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

The two verses show provision in distinct settings: what supports the body’s joined growth in Ephesians 4:16 and what is associated with the Spirit of Jesus Christ in Philippians 1:19.

Senses in use

  1. Provision supporting the body’s growth · dominant

    In Ephesians 4:16, the genitive singular noun occurs in the clause about the whole body being joined and held together; the APB renders the verse with every joint “with which it is supplied” as the body grows and builds itself up in love.

  2. Provision associated with the Spirit · occasional

    In Philippians 1:19, the genitive singular noun stands in the phrase connected with prayers and the Spirit of Jesus Christ; the APB renders the clause “through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents provision with “supplied” in Ephesians 4:16 and “the supply” in Philippians 1:19. These renderings identify the clauses’ presentation rather than establish separate lexical meanings.
