2 | Exodus - laws leaders must follow | OT general | JimTrail | 202974 | ||
I found what I was looking for. The passage to which I was referring used the word "ruler" - not the word "king" /------- Exodus Ch. 18. Ver 21 (Regarding rulers) 21 Moreover you shall select from all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. 22 And let them judge the people at all times. Then it will be that every great matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they themselves shall judge. So it will be easier for you, for they will bear the burden with you. /------- The key words in the phrases above are: "such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness" |
