  • Dan 6:4-9 : 4 Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the administrators and satraps because an excellent spirit was in him, and the king planned to set him over the entire kingdom. 5 At this, the administrators and satraps sought to find a charge against Daniel concerning the kingdom, but they could find no charge or fault because he was faithful. No negligence or corruption was found in him. 6 Then these men said, 'We will not find any ground for complaint against this Daniel unless it is connected with the law of his God.' 7 So the administrators and satraps went as a group to the king and said to him, 'King Darius, may you live forever! 8 All the governors of the kingdom, the prefects, satraps, advisors, and officials have agreed to establish a royal decree and enforce an edict: Anyone who petitions any god or human besides you, O king, for thirty days shall be thrown into the lions' den. 9 Now, O king, issue the decree and put it in writing so that it cannot be altered, in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.
  • John 19:12-16 : 12 Because of this, Pilate tried to release him. But the Jews kept shouting, "If you release this man, you are not a friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar." 13 So Pilate, when he heard this statement, brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called The Stone Pavement, which in Aramaic is called Gabbatha. 14 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Here is your king!" 15 But they shouted, "Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your king?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar." 16 So then he handed him over to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.

Their laws differ from those of every other people, and they do not obey the king’s laws. Therefore, it is not beneficial for the king to tolerate them. 9 If it pleases the king, let a decree be written to destroy them, and I will weigh out ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who carry out the work, to be deposited in the king’s treasuries." 10 So the king removed his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.
