Crumb

krum (, psichon, a little bit): Occurs only in the New Testament, of remnants of food, scraps. Lazarus desired to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table (Luk 16:21). Even the (little) dogs eat of the crumbs (Mat 15:27; Mar 7:28), possibly the fragments of bread on which the guests wiped their hands (after thrusting them into the common dish), and flung to the dogs (Farrar, Life of Christ, I, 476).
