A mobed /ˈmoʊ'bɛd,-bæd/ or mobad (Middle Persian: 𐭬𐭢𐭥𐭯𐭲) is a Zoroastrian cleric of a particular rank. Unlike a herbad (ervad), a mobed is qualified to serve as celebrant priest at the Yasna ceremony. A mobed is also qualified to train other priests. In general (lay) use, the term is also used as an honorific to denote any priest, of any rank. For instance, Hormizd I appointed Kartir moabadan-moabad, which is frequently translated as "priest of priests", but more precisely indicates "high priest of high priests". The term "mobed" is a contraction of Middle Persian magu-pati, the first half of the expression apparently deriving from Avestan 𐬨𐬀𐬔𐬀 maga- or magu- (of uncertain meaning), and with Avestan 𐬞𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬌 -paiti meaning "master" or "teacher". Through Old Persian 𐎶𐎦𐏁 magush and Ancient Greek μάγος magos, Old Iranian magu- is also identified as the origin of the Latin word magus, a "magian". Through the Greek adjective μαγικός magikos and Old French magique, 'mobed' is distantly related to the English language word "magic". Zoroastrian priests in India are required to be male,[1] but women have been ordained in Iran and North America as a mobedyar, meaning a woman mobed.[2][3] References1. ^{{citation |first= Solomon Alexander |last= Nigosian |year= 1993 |title= The Zoroastrian Faith: Tradition and Modern Research |place= Montreal, Quebec |publisher= McGill-Queen's University Press |isbn= 077351144X |oclc= 243566889 |page= [https://books.google.com/books?id=Uspf6eDDvjAC&pg=PA104&lpg=PA104 104] }} 2. ^{{citation |first= Arzan Sam |last= Wadia |date= March 9, 2011 |title= The Jury Is Still Out On Women as Parsi Priests |url= http://parsikhabar.net/religion/the-jury-is-still-out-on-women-as-parsi-priests/2968/ |work= parsikhabar.net |publisher= Parsi Khabar }} 3. ^{{citation |first= Mahshad |last= Khosraviani |date= June 19, 2013 |title= Sedreh Pooshi by Female Mobedyar in Toronto-Canada |url= http://www.parsinews.net/sedreh-pooshi-by-female-mobedyar-in-toronto-canada/3922.html?fb_source=pubv1 |work= parsinews.net |publisher= Parsi News }}
