linguistically interesting,
that the Feudal LORD, was a secular authority, approved by the church, with the power of life or death over his human porperty.

anyone up on Aramaic? Old Hebrew? what was the word THEY used that was translated as Lord in English

the etymology of the word LORD can be traced back to the Old English word hlāford which originated from hlāfweard meaning "loaf-ward" or "bread-keeper", reflecting the Germanic tribal custom of a chieftain providing food for his followers
