Jerome and the Monepiscopacy - The Cordial Catholic & Suan Sonna

Intellectual Catholicism - A podcast by Suan Sonna

The Cordial Catholic (Keith Little) shows that although Jerome taught that presbyters and bishops are equals, Jerome also shows that the apostles universally decreed that one bishop-presbyter should be placed over the other bishop-presbyters. In other words, the monarchical episcopate, the structure of the Catholic Church, has its origins in the apostles.
