=== Cathedra === In Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Lutheran and Anglican [[cathedral]]s there is a special chair set aside for the exclusive use of the bishop. This is the bishop's ''[[cathedra]]'' and is often called the [[throne]]. In some Christian denominations, for example, the Anglican Communion, parish churches may maintain a chair for the use of the bishop when he visits; this is to signify the parish's union with the bishop. <gallery widths="160" heights="200"> File:Kyr-Jonas presovsky-arcibiskup-a-metropolita-1.jpg|Byzantine Rite Catholic bishop in non-liturgical clothing File:Bishop Trevor Williams.jpg|An Anglican bishop with a crosier, wearing a rochet under a red chimere and cuffs, a black tippet, and a pectoral cross File:BishopThom.jpg|An Episcopal bishop immediately before presiding at the Great Vigil of Easter in the [[narthex]] of St. Michael's Episcopal Cathedral in [[Boise, Idaho]].
