 theocracy
      n 1: a political unit governed by a deity (or by officials
           thought to be divinely guided)
      2: the belief in government by divine guidance

 Theocracy
    a word first used by Josephus to denote that the Jews were under
    the direct government of God himself. The nation was in all
    things subject to the will of their invisible King. All the
    people were the servants of Jehovah, who ruled over their public
    and private affairs, communicating to them his will through the
    medium of the prophets. They were the subjects of a heavenly,
    not of an earthly, king. They were Jehovah's own subjects, ruled
    directly by him (comp. 1 Sam. 8:6-9).
