They were so radically different than every other nation they asked to be given a king like the other nations. So they went from God's perfect plan, an all men on equal footing Theocracy, to a Monarchy...
Democracy is better than being ruled by one person, but it will never be the Theocracy that was intended.
Your simple statement was almost word for word what my Pastor said.
I just found that neat.
