Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
πρεσβῦτις (~ πρεσβύτις ) [page 535]
an old woman. It is sometimes thought that the πρεσβύτιδες of Tit_2:3 , the only place where the word occurs in the NT (cf. 4Ma_16:14 ), are the members of a priestly or organized class in view of the ἱεροπρεπεῖς which follows, see the citations s.v. ἱεροπρεπής ; but the word need not imply more than that the πρεσβύτιδες are to carry into daily life the demeanour of priestesses in a temple (Lock ICC ad l. ), and this meaning is strongly confirmed by the context (cf. v. 2).
