Trace all the words back to the Greek or Hebrew words narses. I doubt that you dare find out the truth.

Heb 13:24 Salute all your prelates and all the saints. The brethren from Italy salute you.

As in, a distinct group set apart from the entire congregation who collectively are known as saints.

So now the "Sola Yourselfa" crowd claims to have studied the origins of the word "prelates" and have discovered that it came from cavemen who used it to mean, "pebble".

That's a somewhat interesting variation of, "that's what the Scriptures say, but that's not what they mean", but it's still exactly the same refusal to accept what the Bible clearly says. It's just another variation of the same dodge that those who claim to believe in the "clear meaning of Scriptures" use as they attempt to twist and torture Scriptures to fit into their own personal interpretation of Scriptures.
