teacher, Teacher

Definition:

A teacher is a person who gives other people new information. Teachers help others to obtain and use both knowledge and skills.

In the Bible, the word “teacher” is used in a special sense to refer to someone who teaches about God.
People who learn from a teacher are called “students” or “disciples.”
In some Bible translations, this term is capitalized (“Teacher”) when it is used as a title for Jesus.

The usual word for a teacher can be used to translate this term, unless that word is only used for a school teacher.
Some cultures may have a special title that is used for religious teachers, such as “Sir” or “Rabbi” or “Preacher.”
