Titus

Apostle Paul holds a letter written in cursive Greek saying, 'To Titus, ordained first bishop of the church of the Cretans'. Paul also holds a sword, the instrument of his martyrdom. <i>Apostle Saint Paul</i> by El Greco (between 1610 and 1614)

Apostle Paul's letter to Saint Titus describes the requirements and duties of elders and bishops in the early church.

The Epistle to Titus is one of three epistles that are called "pastoral" because they relate to the conduct of church leaders, thought of as pastors (literally shepherds) for church followers. The First Epistle to Timothy and Second Epistle to Timothy are the other pastoral epistles.
