The meaning of Dominion in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)

do-min'-yun: In Ephesians 1:21; Colossians 1:16 the word so translated (kuriotes) appears to denote a rank or order of angels. The same word is probably to be so interpreted in Judges 1:8 (the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American) "dominion"), and in II Peter 2:10 (the King James Version "government," the Revised Version (British and American) "dominion").

See ANGEL.
