ἘΠΙΣΚΟΠΟΙΠ, ἐπισκοποιπ
EPISKOPOIP, episkopoip
Sounds Like: eh-pee-SKO-poy
Translations: overseers, bishops
From the root: ΕΠΙΣΚΟΠΟΣ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word appears to be a misspelling or typo of the Koine Greek word ἘΠΙΣΚΟΠΟΙ (episkopoi), which means 'overseers' or 'bishops'. It refers to those who have a supervisory role or authority within a community, often in a religious context. They are responsible for watching over and guiding others. The trailing 'Π' is likely an error. It is a compound word formed from ἘΠΙ (epi, 'over, upon') and ΣΚΟΠΟΣ (skopos, 'watcher, one who looks').
