Delphi (Greece) (search for this): book 6, section 759c
we shall entrust it to the god himself to ensure his own good pleasure, by committing their appointment to the divine chance of the lot; but each person who gains the lot we shall test, first, as to whether he is sound and true-born, and secondly, as to whether he comes from houses that are as pure as possible, being himself clean from murder and all such offences against religion, and of parents that have lived by the same rule. They ought to bring from Delphi laws about all matters of religion, and appoint interpretersi.e. official exponents of sacred law; cp. Plat. Laws 775a, Plat. Laws 828b. thereof, and make use of those laws.
