History

Answer:

The <u>role bishops played</u> in the early Christian Church was to manage churches and take care of several congregations.

The <u>role priests played</u> in the early Christian church was to officiate the Eucharist <u>as delegates.</u>

Explanation:

<u>In the early Christian Church</u>, a bishop was the main minister and manager of churches of the area in which they were assigned to. All this, because the<u> bishops were successors of the apostles. </u>

The priests' duties were mainly connected to the celebration of the Eucharist even though <u>priesthood was a job done by bishops and the elders</u>. The fact that the first <u>bishops outsource the realization of the eucharist to some other presbyte</u>r ended up creating the notion of the <em>priest </em>as such.

The sacrament of holy orders is conferred in three ranks of clergy: bishops, priests, and deacons.

Bishops (episcopoi) have the care of multiple congregations and appoint, ordain, and discipline priests and deacons. They sometimes appear to be called "evangelists" in the New Testament. Examples of first-century bishops include Timothy and Titus (1 Tim. 5:19–22; 2 Tim. 4:5; Titus 1:5).

Priests (presbuteroi) are also known as "presbyters" or "elders." In fact, the English term "priest" is simply a contraction of the Greek word presbuteros. They have the responsibility of teaching, governing, and providing the sacraments in a given congregation (1 Tim. 5:17; Jas. 5:14–15).

It's quite long, but hope it helps :)

What does Fredrick Douglass learn about the history of slavery through the books that he reads that lead him to detest his maste
Setler [38]

Answer: from the text

Explanation: “The more I read, the more I was led to abhor and detest my enslavers. I could regard them in no other light than a band of successful robbers, who had left their homes, and gone to Africa, and stolen us from our homes, and in a strange land reduced us to slavery.” Douglass’s essay was published in 1845, a time of hardships for colored peoples. The majority of colored people were enslaved and those who were free usually were illiterate. Given these facts and the caliber of Douglass’s language and diction as exemplified in the lines above, who is this essay geared toward/ whose support is Douglass attempting to rally?

Burka [1]

Answer:

modern humans originated in Africa and migrated to other parts of the world.

Explanation:

The proposition "Out of Africa" is an evolutionary theory which explains that modern human has been originated from Africa about 100,000–200,000 years ago and then have migrated to different parts of the world following the late Pleistocene. The advancement of genetic analytics techniques in the 1980s exposed scientists to the hypothesis named out of Africa. The model emphasizes that while the world once inhabited by different human-like creatures, only one has evolved into modern man.
