Dougg, everything in your very long post was already answered in my previous post.

You may not "get" why I quoted Genesis 17 -- it is because G-d tells Abraham he will be the father of KINGS through Sarah. Yes, Abraham was the father of other nations but NOT THROUGH SARAH.

The only nation with kings from Abraham and Sarah are the JEWS. So this completely blows apart your idea that by asking Saul for a king the Jews rejected G-d.

Then you quote (yet again) 1 Samuel 10:19. It does NOT say "rejected your G-d." It says "rejected your elohim."

Now it COULD be G-d but since G-d already promised Abraham that there would be Jewish kings and since G-d already promised Jacob there would be Jewish kings and since even Moses mentioned there would be Jewish kings -- why would G-d say He was rejected when they finally ASKED for a Jewish king?

It is illogical.

It makes more sense to think that 1 Samuel is saying "G-d your L-rd who brought you out of Egypt says that this day you have rejected the rulers who saved you from adversity" (e.g. the judges). Elohim can translate to that as easily as to "G-d."

The point is, Dougg, that there is nothing in the Torah to support that G-d would be angry that Israel wanted a king when G-d Himself told Abraham, Jacob and Moses that there would be Jewish kings (plural).

Your original premise has been shown to be in error by other quotes from Torah. Please do not rehash or requote the same thing you've said in about 5-10 posts now unless there is something new to add. Repetition does not strengthen the argument. This is also true with your continued repetition of Zechariah 14 -- asked and answered. There is a world of difference (literally) between a human king and the King of Kings (G-d).

You are confusing grapes with an elephant. You may not like the answer, you may not understand the answer -- but repeating the same mantra won't change the answer.
And everything that Sarah tells you, listen to her voice. Genesis, 21:12
