Catholic AnswerNobles were people of "noble" rank and birth. In other words, you were a noble if you were born into a noble family. Noble families were those who had received titles from the prince or king and owned the land. Bishops were usually accorded the same respect and titles as nobles, in England to this day, a Bishop is titled "Lord" and, at least in former times, had a seat in the House of Lords. But obviously the difference is that a Bishop's title was not inherited, but granted.
