The word "ordain" means "to order by virtue of superior authority; decree," and correctly represents the original. The meaning of "appoint" is "to create and charge with a task or function."

I hope to provide some more examples later, DV.


I think it would do well if we had some CT guys comment on the good Rev.'s views.
