archdeaconry

Archdeacon

An archdeacon is a senior clergy position in Anglicanism, Chaldean Catholicism, Syrian Malabar Nasrani, and some other Christian denominations, above that of most clergy and below a bishop.

An archdeacon is often responsible for administration within an archdeaconry, which is the principal subdivision of the diocese. The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church has defined an archdeacon as, "A cleric having a defined administrative authority delegated to him by the bishop in the whole or part of the diocese." The office has often been described metaphorically as that of oculus episcopi, the bishop's eye.
