From pagan times, kings were considered divine, or ruled with divine help. In the Old-Testament monotheistic world are characteristic wise men or advisers who advised the king on important decisions and issues. These advisers were prophets who conveyed to the kings the will of God or message. In this way the kings were inviolable and no one should oppose the king's decisions or the law. Anyone who did this was against God.

The divine right of kings or the divine mandate is a political religious doctrine that gives legitimacy to the king. Therefore, it is not subject to any earthly authority, people, aristocracy. This means that only God can judge the king, and so is every rebellion against the king, opposing God's will.


Right answer is C. divine right
