THE HOLIEST Children of Abram (Abraham)...
Tablet Six
The Children of Israel reject God
as their King
<1>After the possession of Canaan, the system of judges was established in that country for the Children of Israel. However, the judges became corrupt, and because people followed them instead of following God's Laws, their connection with the Lord became disturbed. That is why people longed for a human king. They rejected God as their King. <2>That was why God said these words to Samuel, "...for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me [God], that I should not reign over them." (I Samuel 8:7). That was the greatest mistake made by the Children of Israel or anyone who rejects God as their only Ruler or King.
<3>The reason is very simple. When a society accepts a ruler, leader, or king, that society becomes the subject of that ruler. Only God and His Laws are the true Laws which lead to salvation and happiness. When a human becomes the king or leader of a society instead of God, then men have to follow this human's whims or rules and laws. Because most of the humans are not in complete tune with the Lord, and because power blinds them, they misuse their powers and bring suffering and mischief to their subjects in God's name.
<4>However, if the leaders become in tune with the Laws of the Lord, listen to His Voice, recognize His Signs, understand the lessons of history, and become self-sacrificing for the good of their subjects and all, or if people reject those leaders who do not follow God's Laws, then His Will, will be done and His Kingdom will be established.
<5>So, Saul was chosen as the king of the Children of Israel. He failed. Then God chose a Great Soul as their king, David, and revealed to him the Star of David (
) as the sign for His Kingdom.
The meaning of the Star of David ()
<6>The sign () of the Children of Israel consists of two triangles. The triangle upward (
) is the symbol of organization. It has always been used to show organizational structure in management. The triangle downward (
) is the symbol of control and justice. <7>Therefore, the two triangles together () make up the symbol of the true human society according to God's Will. The triangle upward shows that an organization is necessary, and the triangle downward shows that only with the application of justice and the Laws of God can it be an ideal organization. <8>In short, the sign () means the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth. Only with a well-structured organization and application of justice in that organization according to the Laws of the Lord can His Kingdom be established "on earth as it is in heaven."
<9>So this sign was given to the Children of Israel through King David, and they were chosen to establish such a kingdom.
