Usage
In the New Testament, "phortion" refers to a load or burden that one must carry. It is often used metaphorically to describe responsibilities or obligations that individuals bear in their personal or spiritual lives. Unlike "baros" (another Greek word for burden), which can imply a heavy or oppressive load, "phortion" often denotes a load that is appropriate or expected for one to carry.
