'Elder' in the Bible

And Yahweh said to her, "Two nations [are] in your womb, and two peoples {from birth} shall be divided. And {one people shall be stronger than the other}. And [the] elder shall serve [the] younger."

mighty warrior and man of war, judge and prophet, and diviner and elder,

And the people will be oppressed {by each other} and a man by his neighbor. The boy will act arrogantly toward the elder, and the dishonorable toward the honorable.

And your elder sister, she [is] Samaria, and her daughters, [who are] dwelling on your north, and your younger sister [is] the one dwelling on your south; [she] [is] Sodom and her daughters.

Do not accept an accusation against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses.

Therefore [I, your] fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, [and] also a sharer of the glory that is going to be revealed, exhort the elders among you:

The elder, to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth--and not I alone, but also all those who know the truth--

The elder, to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in [the] truth.
