The word translated *elder* is *presbuterous*.
It is not the Greek word for *priest*.
That word is *hiereis* as in Acts 4:1.

Hey metmom,
Geeee...does God mean elder or priest? The original Bible, from the original writings, the word is priest. Protestants, ie, in the KJV, King James’ 16th century translators changed “priest” to elder. Why would they do that?
Oh yes, Protestants have no ministerial priesthood.
Metmom, you are the best Catholic apologist.
Did you notice it didnt say Catholic Church or any church for that matter?
