tū´tẽr : In modern English an "instructor," more particularly a private instructor, but the word properly means a "guardian." Hence its use in Galatians 4:2 the King James Version for ἐπίτροπος , epı́tropos , here "guardian" (so the Revised Version (British and American)), and 1 Corinthians 4:15; Galatians 3:24 , Galatians 3:25 the Revised Version (British and American) for παιδαγωγός , paidagōgós . See SCHOOLMASTER .
