Jeremiah 34:10So all the officials and all the people who entered into this covenant agreed that they would free their menservants and maidservants and no longer hold them in bondage.

So they said no more to him, for no one had overheard the conversation.Daniel 2:4Then the astrologers answered the king in Aramaic, “O king, may you live forever!

The vessels from His house were brought to you, and as you drank wine from them with your nobles, wives, and concubines, you praised your gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand. But you have failed to glorify the God who holds in His hand your very breath and all your ways.Daniel 6:1Now it pleased Darius to appoint 120 satraps to rule throughout the kingdom,Daniel 6:2and over them three administrators, including Daniel, to whom these satraps were accountable so that the king would not suffer loss.Daniel 6:3Soon, by his extraordinary spirit, Daniel distinguished himself among the administrators and satraps.

He still makes his petition three times a day.”Daniel 6:14As soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.Daniel 6:15Then the men approached the king together and said to him, “Remember, O king, that by the law of the Medes and Persians no decree or ordinance established by the king can be changed.”Daniel 6:21Then Daniel replied, “O king, may you live forever!Hosea 7:5The princes are inflamed with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.Hosea 8:4They set up kings, but not by Me.

When Peter entered the house, Jesus preempted him. “What do you think, Simon?” He asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs and taxes: from their own sons, or from others?”Matthew 17:26“From others,” Peter answered. “Then the sons are exempt,” Jesus said to him.Matthew 17:27“But so that we may not offend them, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take the first fish you catch. When you open its mouth, you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for My tax and yours.”Matthew 22:21“Caesar’s,” they answered. So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”Matthew 27:29And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand, knelt down before Him, and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”Mark 12:17Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.John 19:6As soon as the chief priests and officers saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” “You take Him and crucify Him,” Pilate replied, “for I find no basis for a charge against Him.”John 19:7“We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”John 19:8When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,John 19:9and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.John 19:10So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?”John 19:11Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”John 19:12From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”John 19:13When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called the Stone Pavement, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.Acts 12:2He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.Acts 12:3And seeing that this pleased the Jews, Herod proceeded to seize Peter during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.Acts 25:11If, however, I am guilty of anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is no truth to their accusations against me, no one has the right to hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar!”Acts 25:12Then Festus conferred with his council and replied, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you will go!”Acts 25:20Since I was at a loss as to how to investigate these matters, I asked if he was willing to go to Jerusalem and be tried there on these charges.1 Timothy 2:1First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone—1 Timothy 2:2for kings and all those in authority—so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.
