They did so use “presbyter” in the Greek in Acts 14:23. I am starting to think about not being so charitable if you are purposely trying to deceive people.

While I appreciate your extended charity but please note I said the Greek word for “priest” is not used. That Greek word is “hiereus” (priest), not “presbyter”, which throughout the NT is used for an elder or older man.(Acts 15:6)
