Yesterday’s word

The word empyreal means “of, or relating to, the sky or heavens; celestial”

First usage

Our word came into English in the late 1400s

Background / Comments

I tend to use the first first of the four pronunciations. The word comes from the Latin word empyreus, a variant of empyrius, which came from the Greek work empýrios (fiery).
