However, the name is of Roman origin and may be associated with the broader context of Roman influence during the New Testament period. The Manlius family was a prominent patrician family in ancient Rome, known for its military and political influence. While the Bible does not mention any individual named Manlius, understanding the Roman context is essential for interpreting certain New Testament passages.<br><br><b>Roman Influence in the New Testament</b><br><br>During the time of Jesus and the early church, the Roman Empire exerted significant control over the regions of Judea and Galilee. This political backdrop is crucial for understanding the interactions between Roman authorities and key biblical figures. The presence of Roman officials, soldiers, and tax collectors is frequently noted in the Gospels and Acts.<br><br><b>Roman Centurions</b><br><br>Roman centurions are mentioned several times in the New Testament, often depicted as figures of authority and sometimes as individuals who exhibit faith. For example, in <a href="/matthew/8-5.htm">Matthew 8:5-13</a>, a centurion approaches Jesus in Capernaum, seeking healing for his servant. Jesus commends the centurion's faith, saying, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith" (<a href="/matthew/8-10.htm">Matthew 8:10</a>). This interaction highlights the complex relationship between the Jewish population and Roman authorities, where faith transcends ethnic and political boundaries.<br><br><b>Paul and Roman Citizenship</b><br><br>The Apostle Paul, a pivotal figure in the early church, was a Roman citizen. This status afforded him certain legal protections and privileges, which he utilized during his missionary journeys. In <a href="/acts/22-25.htm">Acts 22:25-29</a>, Paul invokes his Roman citizenship to avoid unlawful punishment, stating, "Is it lawful for you to flog a Roman citizen who is uncondemned?" (<a href="/acts/22-25.htm">Acts 22:25</a>). This incident underscores the significance of Roman law and citizenship in the spread of the Gospel.<br><br><b>Roman Governance and the Trial of Jesus</b><br><br>The trial and crucifixion of Jesus occurred under Roman jurisdiction. Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea, played a central role in the events leading to Jesus' crucifixion. Despite finding no fault in Jesus, Pilate ultimately succumbed to the demands of the crowd, illustrating the tension between Roman authority and local Jewish leadership. In <a href="/john/19-10.htm">John 19:10-11</a>, Pilate questions Jesus, saying, "Do You refuse to speak to me? Don’t You know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?" Jesus responds, "You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above" (<a href="/john/19-10.htm">John 19:10-11</a>), emphasizing divine sovereignty over earthly powers.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>While the name Manlius is not found in the Bible, the Roman context in which the New Testament was written is essential for understanding the interactions between Roman authorities and the early Christian community. The presence of Roman officials, the legal framework of Roman citizenship, and the governance of Roman provinces all play significant roles in the narrative of the New Testament.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">MANLIUS, TITUS</span><p>man'-li-us.<br><br>See <a href="../m/manius.htm">MANIUS, TITUS</a>.<p><a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/boethius/the_theological_tractates/anicius_manlius_severinus.htm"><span class="l">Anicius <b>Manlius</b> Severinus</span></a> <br><b>...</b> ANICIUS <b>MANLIUS</b> SEVERINUS.
