In Greek, a priest is called "ιερέας" (pronounced "ieréas"). This term is commonly used in both the Greek Orthodox Church and in other Christian denominations. The word is derived from the ancient Greek term for a priest, emphasizing the religious and sacramental role of the individual in worship and community life.
