The Elder

The Hebrew term used for the office of elder in the Old Testament is derived from the word meaning 'beard'.... The Aramaic term of elder means 'one with grey hair' ... The Greek word for the office ... means old(er) Man. - The Elder, Cornelius Van Dam.

So I am well qualified according to the etymology.- GJW
