οἰκέτης [1 verse] (noun sg masc nom) "Servant" is oiketēs, which means "household slave", and "household". This might be seen as an abbreviation of the Greek word for "steward",  oikonomos, which was used extensively in the previous story. Both words are from the Greek word for "house" or "household",  oikos.--  The unique word for Jesus here is translated as "servant" but it means "house slave" or "house man".  It is from the same root as the word for  "steward" used extensively in the previous story. Both words are from the Greek word for "house" or "household".
