Strong’s Greek Lexicon

from G4760 and G757; a ruler of an army, i.e. (specifically) a Praetorian prefect:—captain of the guard.

Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
