Chamberlain
        

Romans 16:23; Erastus, oikonomos, steward or public treasurer of the city, who kept account of the revenues. Latin arcarius. So in inscriptions in Marm. Oxon., 85, Neilos is called oikonomos of Asia. On the other hand Blastus was chamberlain (epi tou koitonos tou basileos) in a different sense, namely, over the king's bedchamber, a post of honor and intimacy (Acts 12:20).
