My comment:

De acuerdo a la Biblia, ésta es la forma en que se designan.

My references:

Uno de los versículos usados como referencia es Mateo 27:1. Te pongo ambas versiones para que puedas cotejar:

MAT 27:1 Y venida la mañana, entraron en consejo todos los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y los ancianos del pueblo, contra Jesús, para entregarle á muerte.

MT 27:1 And when morning was come, all the chief priests and ancients of the people took counsel against Jesus, that they might put him to death.
