Definition: The word "appointee" in the Bible refers to a person chosen by the appointed authority to act as a representative or officiating minister within religious services, often at an election or court-martial. The term typically implies the appointment of someone (either priestly, secular, or church officials) to perform duties for a specific religious service. This is distinct from the role of 'appointee' in everyday life, where someone would be chosen by others for certain functions or roles.
