In Christianitate, '''archiepiscopus''' ([[wikt:{{victio|Archiepiscopus|-i, ''|m.'']])}} (ex Graeco αρχι 'primus' + επισκοπος 'inspector', 'custos') est [[episcopus]] elatus. In ecclesiis enim [[Ecclesia Catholica|Catholica Romana]], [[Ecclesia Anglicana|Anglicana]], [[Ecclesia Lutherana|Lutherana]], et aliis, archiepiscopus certam [[ecclesia|ecclesiae]]e partem, archidioecim vel provinciam appellata, regit. [[Metropolita]], archiepiscopus dioecesis qui praeficitur Provinciae Ecclesiasticae praeest ([[archidioecesis]]). <!-- ex en: An archbishop is equivalent to a bishop in sacred matters but simply has a higher precedence or degree of prestige. Thus, when someone who is already a bishop becomes an archbishop, that person does not receive Holy Orders again or any other sacrament; however, in the rarer case when a person who is not a bishop at all becomes an archbishop, they will need to be ordained a bishop before being created an archbishop and installed.-->
Primis in temporibus quaeque civitas habuit antistitem proprium episcopus.
Linea 10:
Patriarchae et Primatis tituli, praeter praerrogativam honoris, nullam in Ecclesia Latina secum fert regiminis potestatem, nisi de aliquibus ex privilegio apostolico aut probata consuetudine aliud constet.
