Definition
Relating to or characteristic of a disciple or disciples; of or pertaining to the status or role of being a student or follower.
Etymology
From Latin discipulus (disciple, learner) + -ar (suffix forming adjectives). The -ar suffix comes from Latin -aris, meaning 'of or pertaining to.' This is a formal, rare adjective describing discipleship qualities.
Kelly Says
This word is almost archaic—you might encounter it in old theological writing describing the 'discipular relationship' between teacher and student, but it's been replaced by 'discipleship' or simply 'disciple' in modern English.
