Semi-learned borrowing from Ecclesiastical Latin episcopus (“overseer, bishop”) (compare Catalan bisbe, French évêque, Italian vescovo, Portuguese bispo, and ultimately English bishop), from Ancient Greek ἐπίσκοπος (epískopos, “one who watches over, overseer”), from ἐπί (epí, “over”) + σκοπός (skopós, “watcher”), from σκοπέω (skopéō, “to contemplate, to behold”).
