Administration of Justice in the New Testament

Judea was part of the Roman Empire and so was subject to Roman jurisdiction. But there was also a Jewish, religious court which pronounced rulings on internal Jewish matters: the Sanhedrin. However, the Roman court had the greatest authority.
The two best-known people from the New Testament that had dealings with Roman laws were Jesus and Paul.
