This theme is prevalent throughout the Scriptures, reflecting both human and divine rule. Divine Rule: God's sovereignty is a central theme in the Bible, emphasizing His ultimate authority over creation. In the Old Testament, God's rule is evident in His covenant relationship with Israel, where He is portrayed as the King and Shepherd of His people. <a href="/psalms/103-19.htm">Psalm 103:19</a> states, "The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all." This verse underscores God's supreme authority over the universe. In the New Testament, the rule of God is further revealed through the person and work of Jesus Christ. Jesus is depicted as the King of kings and Lord of lords, whose kingdom is not of this world (<a href="/john/18-36.htm">John 18:36</a>). The book of Revelation highlights the ultimate victory and eternal reign of Christ, as seen in <a href="/revelation/11-15.htm">Revelation 11:15</a> : "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever." Human Rule: Human rule in the Bible is often depicted through the leadership of kings, judges, and other authorities. The establishment of kingship in Israel begins with Saul, followed by David, whose rule is characterized by a heart after God (<a href="/1_samuel/13-14.htm">1 Samuel 13:14</a>). David's reign is significant as it sets the stage for the messianic promise that his descendant would rule eternally (<a href="/2_samuel/7-12.htm">2 Samuel 7:12-16</a>). The Bible also addresses the responsibilities and challenges of human rulers. <a href="/proverbs/29-2.htm">Proverbs 29:2</a> states, "When the righteous flourish, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan." This highlights the impact of leadership on the well-being of a nation and the moral obligations of those in authority. Rule in the Church: In the New Testament, the concept of rule extends to the governance within the church. Elders and overseers are appointed to lead and shepherd the flock, exercising authority with humility and service. <a href="/1_peter/5-2.htm">1 Peter 5:2-3</a> instructs, "Be shepherds of God’s flock that is among you, watching over them—not out of compulsion, but because it is God’s will; not out of greed, but out of eagerness; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock." Rule in the Family: The Bible also addresses the rule within the family structure, emphasizing the roles and responsibilities of husbands, wives, and parents. <a href="/ephesians/5-22.htm">Ephesians 5:22-23</a> states, "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior." This passage reflects the order and leadership within the family, modeled after Christ's relationship with the church. Conclusion: The theme of being "ruled" in the Bible encompasses a wide range of contexts, from divine sovereignty to human leadership in various spheres of life. The Scriptures provide guidance on the nature of authority, the responsibilities of rulers, and the ultimate rule of God through Christ.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Rule.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/2804.htm">2804.
