STRONGS G244:
ἀλλοτριοεπίσκοπος (L T Tr WH ἀλλοτριεπ.), -ου, ὁ (ἀλλότριος and ἐπίσκοπος), one who takes the supervision of affairs pertaining to others and in no wise to himself, [a meddler in other men's matters]: 1 Peter 4:15 (the writer seems to refer to those who, with holy but intemperate zeal, meddle with the affairs of the Gentiles — whether public or private, civil or sacred — in order to make them conform to the Christian standard).
[Hilgenfeld (cf. Einl. ins N. T., p. 630) would make it equivalent to the Latin delator.] The word is found again only in Dionysius, Areop. ep. 8, p. 783 (of one who intrudes into another's office), and [German of Const. ep. 2 ad Cypr. c. 9, in] Coteler. Eccl. Graec. Mon. 2:481 b.; [cf. Winer's Grammar, 25, 99 (94)].
