| Scotland had no territorial episcopate before the 12th century and no archbishoprics before the late 15th century. |
| His episcopate was marked by his continual opposition to the heresies of the Pelagians, Donatists, and Manichees. |
| The shift away from Great Russian bishops generated conflicts with the incumbent episcopate, the parish clergy, and the laity. |
| The Church Society rejected any suggestion the episcopate should be open to women, and said their ordination had damaged the Anglican Church. |
| In its place is the miter, the representation par excellence of the episcopate. |
| Does the historic episcopate imply or necessitate a conciliar way of decision-making, rather than an individualistic one? |
