crastinum

• Language: Latin
• Romanized: crastinum
• Original script: crastinum
• Gloss: of tomorrow

Jerome’s Latin gloss for the reported mahar reading preserved in a Jewish-Christian gospel. Crastinum is the road the Western tradition did not take: the petition for tomorrow’s bread, the bread of the kingdom, rather than for routine daily provision.
