Provost (religion) chaplains, both Roman Catholic and Protestant ("e.g., Feldpropst" in Prussia). In England, the title of provost in cathedrals was almost completely replaced by that of dean, although sometimes when a bishop nominated himself as dean of his own cathedral, a provost was appointed as his deputy. In cathedrals which were also parish churches, however, especially the newly created cathedrals of the 19th and 20th centuries, the senior priest (who was also the parish priest) continued to be known as the provost. This title was used by the head priests of Birmingham Cathedral, Blackburn Cathedral, Bradford Cathedral, Chelmsford Cathedral, Coventry Cathedral,
The Venerable very often called "the Venerable Bede" despite having been canonized in 1899. This is also the honorific used for hermits of the Carthusian Order, in place of the usual term of "Reverend". In the Anglican Communion, "The Venerable" (abbreviated as "the Ven.") is the style usually given to an archdeacon. In the Orthodox Church the term "Venerable" is commonly used as the English-language translation of the title given to monastic saints (Greek: "Hosios", Church Slavonic: "Prepodobni"; both Greek and Church Slavonic forms are masculinum). A monastic saint who was martyred for the Orthodox faith is referred to as "Venerable Martyr".
