Acts 23:2-5

2But the kohen gadol Ananias ordered those standing by him to strike him on the mouth.

3Then Paul said to him, “God is going to strike you on the mouth, you whitewashed wall! Do you sit judging me according to the Torah, and yet in violation of the Torah you order me to be struck?”

4Those standing nearby said, “Do you insult God’s kohen gadol ?”

5Paul said, “I didn’t know, brothers, that he is the kohen gadol . For it has been written, ‘You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.’”
