presbyter is a preist. that's where it comes from. not the jewish temple "Preists". the Preists of the ancient "catholic" church came from the Presbyters just as the overseers became bishops in the classic sense of the word. Ever heard of Prester John?

@JohnTheHutDweller

Presbyter was indeed the Latin name for priest, which I believe originated from the Greek language. I agree Jewish Priests and Church priests are not the same. However, when some of these stories are being written, the terms either shouldn't have been used, or were replaced. Its odd to see this in ancient texts dependent when they were written.

[JohnTheHutDweller]

@JohnTheHutDweller I totally agree. I sent you three response videos. I would love to hear your comments. I will add you as a friend. I like people who I can debate with as long as the dialogue is respectful. You seem like a respectful person, Peace to you. My name is Yusef. I look forward to hearing from you

@JohnTheHutDweller

I did not see the video responses, but thank you for your dialogue. Can't remember if I allowed them or not, but if you do, will be sure to.

Very interest :)

One curious question about Tacitus. When I was in school his name was pronounced tasitus but you pronounce it takitus. Is that more accurate or is just a diference in cultural pronounciations?

@Scarletpooky

In the American language, it is proper to pronounce the Latin 'C' as an 'S'. However, in the actual Latin language, 'C's were pronounced as 'K'. For example, in English, it is pronounced sisero, however, in Latin it is pronounced Kikero. When pronouncing these historical names, I make it a point to pronounce them as the would be in Classical times.

All love and respect from me Jasmine
