Eparchy - Definition and Overview |
|
|
In the Roman Empire, an eparchy was one of the political subdivisions of the Empire. [Some specifics are needed here.]
In Eastern Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodoxy, and Eastern-rite Catholicism, an eparchy is the jurisdiction of a bishop, corresponding to what in the West is called a diocese.
