1 There are other peculiarities about the translation of ⋯ρχιερ⋯ς. In Matthew the invariable rendering is princeps sacerdotum (24 times). So it is in Luke (12 times), and in Acts (21 times), the only exceptions being sacerdotes simply (Acts iv. 1, xxii. 30), while in Mark the favourite is summus sacerdos (17 times), the only exceptions being princeps sacerdotum (ii. 26, x. 33, xi. 18), sacerdos only (xiv. 53, though summus sacerdos also occurs in the same verse), pontifex (xv. 11). In Hebrews, as in John, the favourite is pontifex (15 times), the only exceptions being sacerdos, vii. 27, 28, and x. 11, but in this last the variant ἰερε⋯ς is probably being translated.
