has gloss | (noun) a senior clergyman and dignitary archpriest, prelate, high priest, hierarch, primate |
has gloss | eng: In most denominations of the Latter Day Saint movement, a high priest is a member of the priesthood within the Melchizedek priesthood order. High priests are typically older and more seasoned leaders within the priesthood. The term derives in part from the Epistle to the Hebrews which describes Jesus as "a high priest after the order of Melchizedek." (5:10; see also 6:20). Movement founder Joseph Smith, Jr. ordained the first high priests in 1831. |
