        DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:ἡγεμών}[a] ‘ruler,’ {D:37.59}) to be a governor, in the NT restricted to the meaning of a governor of a Roman province

        Glosses: to be a governor

        Comments: The expression ‘Quirinius was governor of Syria’ ({S:04200200200010}) may be rendered in some languages as ‘Quirinius was the one who commanded all those in the province of Syria’ or ‘Quirinius gave orders to all those in Syria.’
