'Elders' in the Bible

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.

And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.

Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon when he was alive, asking, “How do you advise me to respond to these people?”

But he rejected the advice of the elders who had advised him, and he consulted with the young men who had grown up with him, the ones serving him.

Then the king answered them harshly. King Rehoboam rejected the elders’ advice

Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
