Bishop

From Srafopedia

In the hierarchy of some Christian churches, a Bishop is a senior priest with special ceremonial responsibilities and political powers within the governance of the church. More senior still are the Archbishops and, in the Catholic Church, Cardinals and one Pope.

A Bishop generally has a large and special church building called a Cathedral, after which he is named. ("He", because, to date, there have been no female Bishops!) The geographical region the Bishop represents is called his See.
