QUOTE : The LORD through Moses, in taking the nation of Israel out of another nation, allowed the natural and familial ways of how a political state would naturally arise, while overpassing the illicit shortcomings that men have always defaulted to. They have kept the structural nature of the disbursed and separate states; the families, clans, tribes, and which compose the nation at large; but he had done away with the monarchical aspects that have always arisen. He had kept what spontaneously emerges from genuine human action, and surpasses that which emerges from illicit action. He had retained things born of natural cooperation and avoided things born of worry, concern, and issue. He had naturally given birth to Isaac while avoiding the unnatural birth of Ishmael. In short he had retained decentralized and diverse states, while avoiding any foreign centralized power; and this was the difference between Israel and the other nations; they were a nation governed and sustained by God alone.
