   I can find the word “oikonomos” In 1kings, etc. but not in Genesis.   
   In the verses you mentioned there is the word Dominion, meaning supremacy.   
      
   I understand, based on what the other person you replied to that you might be   
   speaking of a concept from your exchange with him, yet I am uncertain. Hence   
   the question.
