Yes. As the word implies elder actually refers to... you guessed it - to elder (person). In the Old Testament, “elder” usually translates the Hebrew word zaqen from a root which means “beard”. In the New Testament, the Greek word is presbuteros "presbus ‘old (man)’", which is transliterated in English as “presbyter” and from which the word “priest” was derived. In hebrew language the word elder and beard are near identical. If you don't have a beard you were not "elder" material. To the hebrews it basically meant "expirienced" and capable of dealing with other peoples problems. This changed when the beardless Greeks came and the old words lost their meaning. Suddenly beard was no longer the sign of maturity and experience. Bible almost never define age limits in any categorgy (including marriage.)
