|txtha=ἀρχιτρικλινου, ὁ (τρικλινον (or [[τρίκλινος]] ([[namely]], [[οἶκος]]), a [[room]] [[with]] [[three]] couches)), the [[superintendent]] of a dining-[[room]], a τρικλιναρχης, [[table]]-[[master]]: B. D. [[under]] the [[word]] Smith's Bible Dictionary, Governor). It differs from the [[master]] of a [[feast]], συμποσιαρχης, [[toast]]-[[master]], [[who]] [[was]] [[one]] of the guests selected by [[lot]] to [[prescribe]] to the [[rest]] the [[mode]] of [[drinking]]; cf. [[ἀρχιτρίκλινος]] to [[place]] in [[order]] the tables and couches, [[arrange]] the courses, [[taste]] the [[food]] and [[wine]] [[beforehand]], etc. (Heliodorus 7,27) (Some [[regard]] the [[distinction]] [[between]] the [[two]] words as obliterated in [[later]] Greek; cf. [[Sophocles]]' Lexicon, [[under]] the [[word]], and Schaff's Lange's Commentary on John , the [[passage]] cited.)
