    How the English word “ambassador” was understood when the King James Version was still the common Bible of English readers.

    AMBAS'SADOR, noun

    [This is the more common orthography; but good authors write also embassador; and as the orthography of embassy is established, it would be better to write embassador. See Embassador.]
