Mark 6:19 we find a law ignored and a law obeyed. Herodias held it against John the Baptist because he had come to Herod and said, it's not lawful for you to have your brother Philip's wife.

Because Herod said no, she obeyed the law of the king. She obeyed the law of her husband, but she was more than willing to ignore the law of God.
