'''Horepiscopul''' is a rare office of [[clergy]] in the [[Church]]. The name is taken from the Greek Χωρεπίσκοπος, meaning "country [[bishop]]." It is still present in the [[Church of Romania]].{{cite}}
==History==
Chorepiscopi are first mentioned by the ecclesiastical historian [[Eusebius of Caesarea|Eusebius]] in the second century.<ref>Ott, Michael T. (1913). [http://home.newadvent.org/cathen/16024c.htm "Chorepiscopi."] ''[[Roman Catholic|Catholic]] Encyclopedia''. New York: Robert Appleton Company</ref> In the days of the very Early Church, chorepiscopi seemed to have authority in rural districts, but in the second half of the third century they were subject to the urban episcopate, or [[metropolitan]]s. The [[Synod]] of Ancyra (314) forbade them to ordain [[deacon]]s and [[presbyter|priests]].
The Council of Sardica in 343 decreed that chorepiscopi should not be consecrated where a priest would suffice,<ref>[http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf214.xv.iii.iv.vi.html Canon 6] of the Council of Sardica. (Note there is a lacuna in the [http://www.holytrinitymission.org/books/english/councils_local_rudder.htm#_Toc72635084 text] as translated and presented in ''[[The Rudder]]''. The essential word ''not'' has been omitted in the main body of the text, although the sense and the commentary make it clear it should have been included.)</ref> and gradually their numbers declined. In some [[diocese|dioceses]], the title ''chorbishop'' is sometimes used as an alternative title for an auxiliary bishop. However, it should be noted that the functions of an auxiliary usually differ from this specific office.
The modern Arabic word for a priest, ''khoury'', is etymologically taken from the Greek ''chorepiscopos''.
