(Strong's #5596 — Noun Neuter — psomion — pso-mee'-on )

a diminutive of psomos, "a morsel," denotes "a fragment, a sop" (akin to psomizo; see FEED), John 13:26 (twice),27,30. It had no connection with the modern meaning of "sop," something given to pacify (as in the classical expression "a sop to Cerberus").
