<p> ( ποιμήν ), i.e. pastor, is a name given to ministers of the [[Gospel]] in the New-Testament writings and by the early Church. It is a term recommended by the circumstance that [[Christ]] had compared himself to a shepherd and his people to a flock; and the apostle Peter had called him the [[Chief]] Shepherd. (See [[Pastor]]). </p> | <p> (ποιμήν ), i.e. pastor, is a name given to ministers of the [[Gospel]] in the New-Testament writings and by the early Church.
