Read the quotation. Then answer the question that follows. It is God who establishes kings. . . . Princes thus act as ministers

of God and His lieutenants on earth. It is through them that He rules. . . . the royal throne is not the throne of a man, but the throne of God himself. . . . It appears from this that the person of kings is sacred, and to move against them is sacrilege. — Bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet, Politics Drawn from the Very Words of Holy Scripture What idea was Bossuet describing?

Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:

the divine right of the church to rule

the divine right of kings to rule

the divine authority of Parliament over the king

the divine authority of the pope over the citizenry

Answer:

the divine right of kings to rule

Explanation:

It was common for absolutist monarchies to support the idea that kings had the divine right to rule, believing that they had been chosen by God to represent them on earth and carry the burden of leadership. As compensation, God gave kings wealth, power and glory.

This left kings as a kind of deity, forbidding any citizen to stand against them. thus, being against the king was heresy, since the king was the representation of God.

Excerpt from Marsupials
Vesnalui [34]

B) escape from their enemies by jumping away

Escape is spelled correctly in the excerpt. Escape does not have an x. This means option A is wrong and B is correct. C is also wrong because of the spelling of escape and also because it uses the wrong there. In the sentence, their is a possessive adjective. It shows that enemies "belong" to the monkeys since they are the enemies of the monkeys. There means a place, as in over there. They're is a contraction meaning they are. Option D is wrong because of the spelling of escape and the apostrophe in enemie's. An apostrophe is used for contractions or to show ownership. The enemies do not own anything and it is not part of a contraction.

What does the phrase, "cleaving him in twain" mean?
Nana76 [90]
Well, using my limited knowledge, "cleaving" means to chop, break in half, split, etc. Twain means twice. So, perhaps it's like "you've broke my heart in half", something along those lines? hopefully this helps you.
