'''''Oikonomia''Economy''' , from the Greek οἰκονομία (also spelled '''oikonomeia''', '''economia''' or '''economy'oikonomia'') literally means for "household management," the "law of the house," or "house building," and refers primarily to two related concepts in the Orthodox Church—the divine plan for man's salvation and the specific [[bishop|episcopal]] application of the [[canons]] in the life of the Church. The latter usage is a derivation of the former.
