More broadly an officer is someone in a position (an office) of authority or command in an organization. A police officer is an officer of the law. A lieutenant might be an officer in the army. An attorney is an officer of the court. A treasurer in a small nonprofit could be considered an officer. It really depends on the context

bishops are officers of religion probably so this makes a ton of sense why they picked that word

You’re being asked to “at least buy her [the bishop] dinner first”
