Meaning
Finnish
has glossfin: Piispa on Myöhempien aikojen pyhien Jeesuksen Kristuksen kirkossa seurakunnan johtaja. Hänen virkansa ei siis muistuta suurten kirkkokuntien piispan virkaa, vaan se rinnastuu ensi sijassa seurakuntien kirkkoherroihin. Sen sijaan MAP-kirkon piispanvirka vastaa pitkälti ensimmäisten vuosisatojen piispanvirkaa vanhassa kirkossa.
lexicalizationfin: piispa
