Consulate
(From Forerunner Commentary)

2 Corinthians 10:13  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)

An apostle has a measure of rule or authority within the church. In another place, Paul refers to himself as an ambassador. An ambassador is a high governmental personage who represents a yet higher authority—his government—and he is in that position to carry out the dictates of his nation in its relationship with another nation—a foreign nation. The ambassador resides in the foreign nation while representing his own nation, and he has authority, for example, over those who are under him at the consulate.

John W. Ritenbaugh
Unity (Part 3): Ephesians 4 (A)
