The Jews replied to him, We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, because he hath made himself the Son of God. When Pilate then heard this saying, he was the more afraid: and entered into the praetorium again, and saith to Jesus, From whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

LET every soul be subject to the superior powers: for there is no power but from God; the existing powers are appointed by God. Wherefore he that sets himself against authority, resists the ordinance of God: and they who resist shall receive to themselves condemnation.
