    DefinitionShort: a person who guides, directs, and shows concern for
    Glosses: ['guardian', 'leader', 'guide']
    Comments: It may be difficult to render appropriately ἐπίτροπος[b] and παιδαγωγός with a combined meaning of guiding and caring for. It may, in fact, be necessary in some instances to use two verbal expressions, for example, ‘to guide and to help’ or ‘to help by leading’ or ‘to care for by leading.’
