Understanding Ecclesiastical Authority and Its Significance in the Church

Ecclesiastically means relating to a church or its organization and government. It can also refer to matters that are considered to be of concern only to the church, rather than to the state or secular society.

Example: The bishop's decision was final and binding in all ecclesiastical matters.

In this context, "ecclesiastical" is used to describe the bishop's authority and jurisdiction within the church, as opposed to civil or secular authority.
