Definition of Divine Right. 'Divine right of kings' was a way of justifying monarchies, particularly in Europe during the 16th to the 18th centuries. The idea is that the king is given his authority directly by God.
Divine Right Throughout history, the belief that a ruler is chosen by God or the gods has been a powerful source of legitimacy. In the mid-1600s a French religious leader named Jacques-BÃ©nigne Bossuet put forth a political and religious theory based on this idea. Bossuet argued that the French king Louis XIV possessed the divine right of kings.
