'Police' in the Bible

The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about Him, so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent temple police to arrest Him.

Then the temple police came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why haven’t you brought Him?”

The police answered, “No man ever spoke like this!”

So Judas took a company of soldiers and some temple police from the chief priests and the Pharisees and came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

Then the company of soldiers, the commander, and the Jewish temple police arrested Jesus and tied Him up.

Now the slaves and the temple police had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold. They were standing there warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, warming himself.

When He had said these things, one of the temple police standing by slapped Jesus, saying, “Is this the way you answer the high priest?”

When the chief priests and the temple police saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!”Pilate responded, “Take Him and crucify Him yourselves, for I find no grounds for charging Him.”
