“episcopal see”

“BISHOPS”

*THE HOLY SEE*

.

*an episcopal see is – in the usual meaning of the phrase – the ‘area’ of a bishop’s ‘ecclesiastical jurisdiction’*

.

(phrases concerning actions occurring within or outside an episcopal see are indicative of the geographical significance of the term, making it synonymous with “diocese”)

(the word “see” is derived from Latin sedes, which in its original or proper sense denotes the seat or chair that, in the case of a bishop, is the earliest symbol of the bishop’s authority)

(this symbolic chair is also known as the bishop’s cathedra, and is placed in the diocese principal church, which for that reason is called the bishop’s cathedral, from Latin ecclesia cathedralis, meaning the church of the ‘cathedra’)

(the word “throne” is also used, especially in the “eastern orthodox church”, both for the ‘seat’ and for the area of ‘ecclesiastical jurisdiction’)

.

(the term “see” is also used of the town where the cathedral or the bishop’s residence is located)
