Israel, in the days of the theocracy, lacked a capital city. The capstone of God's government is not on this planet, but in heaven. The famous Pyramid of Gaza, the so-called Great Pyramid, is emblematic of this form of government: It is truncated its top part, representing the upper echelons of government, is missing. It was top-down government, pyramidal in structure, with God as the capstone. In the early days, the children of Israel benefited from a highly centralized form of government called a theocracy-the rule of God.
In Isaiah 22:22, the prophet refers to "the key of the house of David." Alluding to this passage, the New Testament bears witness of the existence of this key in Revelation 3:7, where Christ makes reference to Himself: "He who has the key of David." What is this key? What does it open? This article will explore the history of the house of David with the aim of answering these questions.
