ERARCHŌ, erarchō

Sounds Like: eh-PAR-khoh

Translations: to be governor, to rule over, to preside over

From the root: ΕΠΑΡΧΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: The word "ἘΡΑΡΧΩ" appears to be a misspelling or a variant of the Koine Greek verb "ἐπάρχω" (eparchō). If it is indeed "ἐπάρχω", it means "to be governor," "to rule over," or "to preside over." It describes the action of holding authority or leadership over a region or group of people. For example, one might say "He rules over the city" or "She presides over the assembly."
