   Calling God a “king” does not match the normal,   
   literal meaning of the word. A king is a human   
   ruler over a defined territory who governs through   
   laws, institutions, and inherited or granted authority,   
   and God does not fit that description. In the Bible,   
   God does not formally define Himself as a king in   
   human political terms; rather, He is called king by   
   others or speaks using royal language, such as   
   “The LORD is King forever” (Psalm 10:16), “your King”   
   (Isaiah 43:15), and “I am a great King” (Malachi 1:14).   
   These statements use the title descriptively, not   
   as a literal claim to a human office.
