How is this idea represented in Article 3 different from the divine right to rule that absolute monarchs like Louis XVI used to
olasank [31]

Answer:

Article 3 of the United States Constitution describes the U.S. judicial branch, including the Supreme Court, the federal courts, and the state courts.

Explanation:

This idea is different from the right of absolute monarchs like Louis XVI, because as the adjective implies, the power of these monarchs was absolute: they made the laws, they executed the laws, and they interpreted the laws. As Louis XVI himself once said "l'etat c'est moi", which is I am the state in French. The French state and Louis XVI were essentially the same thing.
