Three Greek nouns are translated as guard. Hyperetes is used for those guarding the high priest's quarters ( Matthew 26:58; Mark 14:54 ). Koustodia ( Matthew 27:66; Matthew 28:11 ) is a Latin loan word, suggesting that this guard was indeed a Roman guard. Philake is used for stations of guards in Acts 12:10 .
