Other Officials in The Torah
In addition to the Priests and Judges, the Torah mentions several other positions of prominence.
Angels of God
Angels are sent to carry out certain missions. For example, to deliver messages (Genesis 16:7, Genesis 31:11), help people along in their journies and missions (Genesis 24:40), lead the people to a new destination and guard them along the way, Genesis 24:40, Exodus 23:20, Judges 2:1).
Prophets
Yehova raises up Prophets for the people.several times (Deuteronomy 18:15). Prophets speak the words of Yehova, for example, they deliver warnings (2 Kings 17:13) and act as advisers based on what they see as revealed to them by Yehova, Exodus 7:1. Prophets would be consulted when the people wanted to inquire of God, 1 Samuel 9:9. They would sometimes be appointed to a trusted position of office, 1 Chronicles 9:22).
Man of God
Moses was called a 'Man of God' (Deuteronomy 33:1, Joshua 14:6) and so were several others (Judges 13:6, Nehemiah 12:24, 1 Kings 17:18), including Samuel, David, Elijah, Shemaiah and Hanan. Men of God sometimes give warnings and advice (2 Chronicles 25:7) and take central positions in issues of justice (1 Kings 13). People inquire of the Man of God for guidance and direction, 1 Samuel 9:6).
Kings
(Melech)
Yehova says that the people asked for a king (Deuteronomy 17:14) although this was frowned upon by Yehova and Samuel (1 Samuel 8:6). Saul was the first appointed king over Israel (1 Samuel 10:1). King Solomon is described as 'being over' Israel (1 Kings 4:1). As king, Solomon took part in judging (1 Kings 3:9) and employed several types of official, including Priests (1 Kings 4:2).
Chiefs/Princes
Chiefs/Princes (Nasi)/Princes of the Congregation (Nasi Baedah)/Chiefs of the Tribes (Nasi Matot)
These parties would report to other oficials (Exodus 16:22), take part in consultations with other officials (Exodus 34:31, Joshua 22:30) carry out management functions (Numbers 1:16).
Heads
(Rosh)
The twelve sons of Jacob were referred to as Heads of their fathers' houses (Exodus 6:14) and Moses appointed Heads to help him with the process of judging the people (Exodus 18:25). Roshim are described as wise and knowledgeable, Deuteronomy 1:15).
Officers
(Shotim)
The Torah also refers to the role of Shotim. There was Israelite Shotim over the people when they were in Egypt (Exodus 5:6) and the appointment of Shotim is also required by Deuteronomy 16:18, which is one of the primary passages commanding the appointment of Judges.
Sarim
Leaders/Heads: Sari/Sarim (Exodus 18:25, 'leaders of the Levites', 1 Chronicles 15:16)
In Exodus 18, Jethro the Priest advises Moses (who was sitting as a Judge) to appoint Leaders over the people, to help him with the judging. These Leaders were called 'Sarim' and are also referred to as Heads (Deuteronomy 1:15).
Pharoah also had Leaders/Sarim (Genesis 12:15, Genesis 37:36).
