- The Synod is the governing body of the Taelons. Taelons are ruled by the Synod, a group of thirteen (although the quorum appears to be seven) Taelons who make major decisions about their policy, but a body which also considers individual matters if they are important. Members of the Synod have responsibility for different areas of Taelon life: the War Minister, for example, is T'Than. While the Synod generally rules by consensus, they elect a leader from among their number. Leaders have included Qu'on and Zo'or, though for a few days when Zo'or was infected with a deadly virus, T'Than led the Synod, which is taken as an insult to Da'an as he was second in seniority. Other members of the Synod included Da'an, Ku'don, Hoshin, Ra'am (Latin American companion), Bah'or, and Xia'tan. The "Sire of the Synod", presumably its founder, is Ra'jel, the first Taelon. Once Zo'or assumed leadership of the Taelons, the Synod played a less significant role. Zo'or may have been given free rein over the Taelons' activities in order to enhance their chances for success. The Taelons are, more broadly speaking, governed by their own free will and by the Commonality, with individual Taelons being unable to act against the will of the masses. The Commonality holds the consciousness and energy of every Taelon who has ever lived, and their continuance within it after physical death may represent Sh'hariath - what the Taelons consider to be the next level of existence, or afterlife.

- The Synod was the ruling body of the Taelon race. (Episode: Decision) It was the right for members of the Synod to inspect all Taelon facilities. (Episode: Moonscape) Quo'on served as leader of the Synod who allowed Da'an to begin the limb restoration project on Julie Payton's hands. After a wave of devotion came to the Companions after the event, the Synod concluded that they wished to study the phenomena. However, when studies showed that the restored limbs were facing a process of degeneration than there was some concern from the Synod on how this would affect their standing amongst the inhabitants of Earth. Thus, they employed the customary "isolation procedures" which involved killing her and removing her from the public life in order to cover up their experiment. (Episode: Miracle) When Jonathan Doors was revealed to be alive, the Synod was greatly displeased with Da'an and dispatched Zo'or to replace him. However, when Zo'or brought about another public relations disaster, the Synod decided to reinstate Da'an immediately.(Episode: Resurrection) When William Boone asked Da'an to learn the Taelon language, he expressed his implants desire to the Synod who had observed Boone's progress which had brought much debate within the Taelon ruling body. (Episode: The Scarecrow Returns) The leadership of the Synod went into disarray after death of Quo'on at the hands of a Jaridian Replicant during William Boone's funeral. (Episode: The First of its Kind) This led to a power struggle between Da'an and Zo'or over control of the Synod. (Episode: Dimensions) During the elections in North America, it was believed that the American people would support which ever candidate that had the support of the Synod. (Episode: Fissures) Whilst the Synod approved of genetic experiments involving human evolution, their attitude changed due to the rising threat of the Jaridians and they began to support bio-engineering humans into weapons to fight their enemy. (Episode: Between Heaven and Hell) The Synod had initially placed an edict which prevented any Human from meeting a Jaridian, however, Zo'or defied that edict believing it was necessary as he had human technicians work on a captive Jaridian prisoner. (Episode: Gauntlet) After acquiring information on the location of numerous resistance cells, Da'an intended to present his findings at the next Synod security review but was stopped when Zo'or ordered the confiscation of the files. (Episode: Thicker than Blood) When a Jaridian battle fleet was converging on Earth, the Synod decided to abandon the planet. (Episode: The Second Wave)
- A synod (also known as a council) is a council of a church, usually a Christian church, convened to decide an issue of doctrine, administration or application. An ecumenical council is so named because it is a synod of the whole church (or, more accurately, of what those who call it consider to be the whole church.) The word comes from the Greek συνοδος meaning "assembly" or "meeting", and it is synonymous with the Latin word concilium — "council". Originally synods were meetings of bishops, and the word is still used in that sense in Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. Sometimes the phrase general synod or general council refers to an ecumenical council. The word synod also refers to the standing council of high-ranking bishops governing some of the autocephalous Eastern Orthodox churches.

- A synod is a council of the Christian church. The word comes from the Greek σγνοδος meaning an assembly, and is synonymous with the word council that comes from the Latin concilium. The Slavic term sobor has the same meaning, although it also can apply to a church building, generally major churches and cathedrals. In Orthodox practice either word applies to a meeting of a body of the Church to decide issues of doctrine or of administration of the body, both at local as well as higher levels of the churches. An ecumenical council is a synod of the whole church. The word synod is frequently applied in the Orthodox church to the standing councils of high-ranking bishops of autonomous and autocephalous churches that oversee the day-to-day administration of the church, usually referred to as Holy Synods.
