| 1 | Strong's Number: g2012 | Greek: epitropos |
Guardian:
lit., "one to whose care something is committed" (epi, "upon," trepo, "to turn" or "direct"), is rendered "guardians" in Gal 4:2, RV, AV, "tutors" (in Mat 20:8; Luk 8:3, "steward").
"The corresponding verb, epitrepo, is translated "permit, give leave, suffer;" see 1Cr 14:34; 16:7; 1Ti 2:12, e.g.,... An allied noun, epitrope, is translated "commission" in Act 26:12 and refers to delegated authority over persons. This usage of cognate words suggests that the epitropos was a superior servant responsible for the persons composing the household, whether children or slaves." *
