General authority

In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), a general authority is a member of the highest levels of leadership in the church who has administrative and ecclesiastical authority over the church. A general authority's jurisdiction is church-wide, in contrast to the responsibilities of a local authority or an area authority, which relate to a particular area, unit, or department of the church. As a group, the general authorities are often referred to as "the Brethren".〔 As of May 2014, the number of general authorities is 106.
== Origin of the term ==
The first scriptural use of the term ''general authority'' was in minutes of a meeting for the organization of the Presiding High Council in 1834. Though the original minutes did not refer to the term ''general authorities'', the revised minutes, which were included in the 1835 edition of the Doctrine and Covenants, stated that decisions of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles "can only be called into question by the general authorities of the church in case of transgression."〔Doctrine and Covenants, 〕 The use of the term ''general authorities'' at this time and in this context is generally interpreted to include the First Presidency and the Presiding High Council.
