'Authorities' in the Bible
But when they bring you before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not be anxious how or what you should speak in your own defense or what you should say,
Let every person be subject to the governing authorities, for [there] is no authority except by God, and those that exist are put in place by God.
For because of this you also pay taxes, for [the authorities] are servants of God, busily engaged in this very [thing].
in order that the many-sided wisdom of God might be made known now to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly [places] through the church,
because our struggle is not against blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual [forces] of wickedness in the heavenly [places].
[When he] had disarmed the rulers and the authorities, he made a display of [them] in public, triumphing over them by it.
Remind them to be subject to the rulers [and] to the authorities, to obey, to be prepared for every good work,
who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, with angels and authorities and powers having been subjected to him.
