CHOREPISCOPUS — [Noun] A country or suffragan bishop in the ancient church, appointed by a diocesan bishop to exercise episcopal jurisdiction in a rural district, or a title used by medieval Georgian rulers equivalent to a king. From Latin chōrepiscopus, from Ancient Greek χωρεπίσκοπος (khōrepískopos), combining χώρα (khṓra, "place, country") + ἐπίσκοπος (epískopos, "overseer, bishop"), from ἐπί (epí, "on, upon, over") + σκοπός (skopós, "watcher"). Unlike a "bishop" (who commands the cathedral and the city) or a "metropolitan" (who presides over provinces and synods), the chorepiscopus was the quiet guardian of the margins—the one who traveled muddy roads to bless a crumbling chapel, who carried the scent of woodsmoke and damp wool into the incense-heavy halls of the urban clergy, who knew the names of every goatherd and widow in his scattered flock. He was both less and more than his exalted brethren: a humble overseer, but also the last tether between the sacred and the forgotten.
