What is a Herald?
HER'ALD
, one who makes a public and formal announcement. The only reference in the A.V. to this officer is in Dan 3:4; but in the N.T. the familiarity of Paul with the Grecian games induced him to speak of the gospel-preachers as heralds; e.g. 1 Tim 2:7; 2 Tim 1:11. So Peter. 2 Pet 2:5. See Games.
