The term "theocracy" comes from the ancient Greek (θεοκρατία ''theokratía'') and means "rule of God". In accordance with this definition, the government of the Holy Land legitimizes its rule by appealing to the Divine Will and the authority of the Holy See, which, within Catholic ecclesiology, acts as the highest magisterial instance on behalf of Jesus Christ, overseeing and guarding the flock of Christ. Consequently, the separation between state and religion is largely dissolved in the Holy Land: The government leads the state not only politically, but also religiously. | |||
