| + | In those hierarchically organised churches of [[Western Christianity]] which have an ecclesiastical law system, an '''ordinary''' is an officer of the church who by reason of office has '''ordinary power''' to [[executive (government)|execute]] the church's laws.<ref>[http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_PF.HTM#1.0.0.8.0.0.134 c. 134 § 1], ''Code of Canon Law'', 1983</ref> The term comes from the [[Latin language|Latin]] word ''ordinarius''. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In [[Eastern Christianity]], a corresponding officer is called a '''hierarch''',<ref>[http://www.intratext.com/IXT/ENG1199/_PRC.HTM c. 984], ''Code of Canons of the Oriental Churches'', 1992</ref> which comes from the [[Greek language|Greek]] word {{polytonic|ἱεράρχης}} (''hierarchēs'') meaning " president of sacred rites, high-priest"<ref>[http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0057%3Aentry%3Di%28era%2Frxhs ἱεράρχης], | ||

| + | == Ordinary power == | ||
| + | In [[canon law]], the power to govern the church is divided into the power to make laws (legislative), enforce the laws (executive), and to judge based on the law (judicial).<ref>[http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_PF.HTM#1.0.0.8.0.0.135 c. 135 §1], ''Code of Canon Law'', 1983</ref> A person exercises power to govern either because the person holds an office to which the law grants governing power or because someone with governing power has delegated it to the person. Ordinary power is the former, while the latter is delegated power.<ref>''Id''. [http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_PF.HTM#1.0.0.8.0.0.131 c. 131 §1]</ref> The office with ordinary power could possess the governing power itself (proper ordinary power) or instead it could have the ordinary power of agency, the inherent power to exercise someone else's power ([[vicar]]ious ordinary power).<ref>''Id''. § 2</ref> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The law vesting ordinary power could either be ecclesiastical law, i.e. the positive enactments that the church has established for itself, or divine law, i.e. the laws which the church believes were given to it by God.<ref>"[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11284b.htm Ordinary]," ''The Catholic Encyclopedia''</ref> As an example of divinely instituted ordinaries, Roman Catholics believe that when [[Jesus]] established the Church he in turn established the [[episcopate]] and the [[Primacy of Simon Peter]] and endowed the offices with power to rule the Church.<ref>See ''[[Lumen gentium]]'' and ''[[Pastor aeternus]]''</ref> Thus, in the Roman Catholic Church, the office of successor of Simon Peter and the office of diocesan bishop possess their ordinary power even in the absence of positive enactments from the Church. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Many officers possess ordinary power but, due to their lack of ordinary executive power, are not called ordinaries. The best example of this phenomenon is the office of [[judicial vicar]], a.k.a. ''[[officialis]]''. The judicial vicar only has authority through his office to exercise the diocesan bishop's power to judge cases.<ref>[http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_P5C.HTM#7.1.0.2.1.1.1419 c. 1420 § 1], ''Code of Canon Law'' (1983)</ref> Though the vicar has vicarious ordinary judicial power, he is not an ordinary because he lacks ordinary executive power. A [[vicar general]], however, has authority through his office to exercise the diocesan bishop's executive power.<ref>''Id''. [http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_P1O.HTM#2.2.2.3.2.1.479 c. 479 § 1]</ref> He is therefore an ordinary because of this vicarious ordinary executive power. | ||

In those hierarchically organised churches of Western Christianity which have an ecclesiastical law system, an ordinary is an officer of the church who by reason of office has ordinary power to execute the church's laws.<ref>c. 134 § 1, Code of Canon Law, 1983</ref> The term comes from the Latin word ordinarius.
In Eastern Christianity, a corresponding officer is called a hierarch,<ref>c. 984, Code of Canons of the Oriental Churches, 1992</ref> which comes from the Greek word (hierarchēs) meaning " president of sacred rites, high-priest"<ref>ἱεράρχης, Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, on Perseus Digital Library</ref> and that from "ἱερεύς" (hiereus), "priest"<ref>ἱερεύς, Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, on Perseus Digital Library</ref> + "ἀρχή" (archē), amongst others "first place or power, rule".<ref>ἀρχή, Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, on Perseus Digital Library</ref> In common usage in the Episcopal Church, an ordinary is a diocesan bishop.
The term is also employed within civic governance, notably in the US; the Ordinary role involves the discharge of certain, often legal or legally related, tasks falling to city or county authorities, such as licensing marriages and adjudicating claims against an authority.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Ordinary power
In canon law, the power to govern the church is divided into the power to make laws (legislative), enforce the laws (executive), and to judge based on the law (judicial).<ref>c. 135 §1, Code of Canon Law, 1983</ref> A person exercises power to govern either because the person holds an office to which the law grants governing power or because someone with governing power has delegated it to the person. Ordinary power is the former, while the latter is delegated power.<ref>Id. c. 131 §1</ref> The office with ordinary power could possess the governing power itself (proper ordinary power) or instead it could have the ordinary power of agency, the inherent power to exercise someone else's power (vicarious ordinary power).<ref>Id. § 2</ref>
The law vesting ordinary power could either be ecclesiastical law, i.e. the positive enactments that the church has established for itself, or divine law, i.e. the laws which the church believes were given to it by God.<ref>"Ordinary," The Catholic Encyclopedia</ref> As an example of divinely instituted ordinaries, Roman Catholics believe that when Jesus established the Church he in turn established the episcopate and the Primacy of Simon Peter and endowed the offices with power to rule the Church.<ref>See Lumen gentium and Pastor aeternus</ref> Thus, in the Roman Catholic Church, the office of successor of Simon Peter and the office of diocesan bishop possess their ordinary power even in the absence of positive enactments from the Church.
Many officers possess ordinary power but, due to their lack of ordinary executive power, are not called ordinaries. The best example of this phenomenon is the office of judicial vicar, a.k.a. officialis. The judicial vicar only has authority through his office to exercise the diocesan bishop's power to judge cases.<ref>c. 1420 § 1, Code of Canon Law (1983)</ref> Though the vicar has vicarious ordinary judicial power, he is not an ordinary because he lacks ordinary executive power. A vicar general, however, has authority through his office to exercise the diocesan bishop's executive power.<ref>Id. c. 479 § 1</ref> He is therefore an ordinary because of this vicarious ordinary executive power.

Local ordinaries/hierarchs
Local ordinaries exercise ordinary power and are ordinaries in particular churches.<ref>Id.c.134 §§1–2</ref> The following clerics are local ordinaries:
- The Supreme Pontiff (the Pope) is a local ordinary for the whole Catholic Church.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation
|CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, canons 43 and 45</ref>
- In Eastern Catholic Churches, Patriarchs, major archbishops, and metropolitans have ordinary power of governance for the whole territory of their respective autonomous particular churches.<ref>Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, canons 78, 152 and 157</ref>
- Diocesan/eparchial bishops/eparchs
- Other prelates who head, even if only temporarily, a particular church or a community equivalent to it. Canon 368 of the Code of Canon Law lists five Latin-Rite jurisdictional areas that are considered equivalent to a diocese.<ref>Code of Canon Law, canon 368</ref> These are headed by:
- A Territorial Prelate, formerly called a Prelate nullius dioceseos (of no diocese), in charge of a geographical area that has not yet been raised to the level of diocese
- A Territorial Abbot, in charge of an area, which in mission countries can be quite vast, associated with an abbey
- A Vicar Apostolic (normally a bishop of a titular see), in charge of an apostolic vicariate, usually in a mission country, not yet ready to be made a diocese
- A Prefect Apostolic (usually not a bishop), in charge of an apostolic prefecture, not yet ready to be made an apostolic vicariate
- A Permanent Apostolic Administrator, in charge of a geographical area that for serious reasons cannot be made a diocese.
- To these may be added:
- An Apostolic Exarch (normally a bishop of a titular see), in charge of an apostolic exarchate—not yet ready to be made an eparchy—for the faithful of an Eastern Catholic Church in an area that is situated outside the home territory of that Eastern Church.
- A Military Ordinary
- A Personal Prelate, in charge of a group of persons without regard to geography: the only personal prelature existing is that of Opus Dei.
- An Apostolic Administrator of a Personal Apostolic Administration: only one exists, the Personal Apostolic Administration of Saint John Mary Vianney
- An Ordinary of a personal ordinariate for former Anglicans<ref>Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum coetibus of 4 November 2009</ref>
- A Superior of an autonomous mission
- Of somewhat similar standing is the Diocesan Administrator (formerly called a Vicar Capitular) elected to govern a diocese during a vacancy. Apart from certain limitations of nature and law, he has, on a caretaker basis, the same obligations and powers as a Diocesan Bishop. <ref>Code of Canon Law, canons 427-429</ref> Occasionally an Apostolic Administrator is appointed by the Holy See to run a vacant diocese, or even a diocese whose bishop is incapacitated or otherwise impeded.
Also classified as local ordinaries, although they do not head a particular church or equivalent community are:
Ordinaries who are not local ordinaries
Major superiors of religious institutes (including abbots) and of societies of apostolic life are ordinaries of their respective memberships, but not local ordinaries.<ref>Code of Canon Law, canon 134</ref>
Orthodox Christianity
In the Orthodox Church, a hierarch (ruling bishop) holds uncontested authority within the boundaries of his own diocese; no other bishop may perform any sacerdotal functions without the ruling bishop's express invitation. The violation of this rule is called eispēdēsis (Greek: εἰσπήδησις, "trespassing", literally "jumping in"), and is uncanonical. Ultimately, all bishops in the Church are equal, regardless of any title they may enjoy (Patriarch, Metropolitan, Archbishop, etc.). The role of the bishop in the Orthodox Church is both hierarchical and sacramental.<ref>http://www.bible.net.au</ref>
