“The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.”
The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed one.' — the Psalm 2 citation continues: rulers (archontes, rulers, magistrates) band together (syntassō, appoint together, band together, conspire) against the Lord and his Messiah. The application is clear: the Jewish council opposes not mere apostles but God's anointed one (Jesus). Opposition to the gospel is opposition to God.
