Lexiph. 1; in a bad sense, language artfully adapted to captivate the hearer, fair speaking, fine speeches: Romans 16:18 (joined with χρηστολογία, the latter relating to the substance, εὐλογία to the expression); plural in Aesop, fab. 229, p. 150 edition Cor. ἐὰν σὺ εὐλογίας ἐυπορῇς, ἔγωγέ σου οὐ κήδομαι, [but why not genitive singular?]. By a usage unknown to native Greeks.

4. consecration: τὸ ποτήριον τῆς εὐλογίας, the consecrated cup (for that this is the meaning is evident from the explanatory adjunct ὃ εὐλογοῦμεν, see εὐλογέω 3 [others besides; cf. Meyer edition Heinrici at the passage; Winer's Grammar, 189 (178)]), 1 Corinthians 10:16.
5. a (concrete) blessing, benefit, (Deuteronomy 11:26, etc.; Sir. 7:32; Sir. 39:22, etc.); universally, 1 Peter 3:9; of the blessings of Christianity, Romans 15:29; Ephesians 1:3; ἡ εὐλογία τοῦ Ἀβρ. the salvation (by the Messiah) promised to Abraham, Galatians 3:14; of the continual fertility of the soil granted by God, Hebrews 6:7 (Leviticus 25:21; ὑετὸς εὐλογίας, Ezekiel 34:26; cf. εὐλογεῖν ἀγρόν, Genesis 27:27); of the blessing of a collection sent from Christians to their brethren, 2 Corinthians 9:5 (of the gifts of men, Genesis 33:11; Judges 1:15; 1 Samuel 25:27); ἐπ’ εὐλογίαις, that blessings may accrue, bountifully (opposed to φειδομένως), 2 Corinthians 9:6 (see ἐπί, B. 2 e., p. 234a top).
