'Chief Priests' in the Bible

And he gathered all the chief Priests and Scribes of the people, and asked of them where Christ should be born.

"Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,

When the chief priests and scribes saw the marvels that he did; and the children crying in the temple and saying, "Hosanna to the son of David"; they disdained,

And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, "By what authority doest thou these things? And who gave thee this power?"

And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard these similitudes, they perceived that he spake of them.

Then assembled together the chief priests and the scribes and the elders of the people into the palace of the high priest, called Caiaphas:

Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

While he yet spake, Lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, which were sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

The chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, for to put him to death,

when the morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people held a counsel against Jesus, to put him to death,

Then when Judas, which betrayed him, saw that he was condemned, he repented himself; and brought again the thirty plates of silver to the chief priests and elders,

And the chief priests took the silver plates and said, "It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood."

And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

But the chief priests and the elders had persuaded the people, that they should ask Barabbas, and should destroy Jesus.
