Judges 18:7 Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people that were therein, how they dwelt careless, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and there was no
magistrate in the land, that might put them to shame in anything; and they were far from the Zidonians, and had no business with any man.
Luke 12:67 Why goest thou to thine adversary for a
magistrate, when thou art in the way with thine enemy? Why not give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison?
