Despite being rejected by the Israelites
Who asked for a king to judge them even though God was their king,
God listened to their voice (1 Sam. 8:5-9).
The Son of God Jesus obeyed the Word of Father God even death on a cross (Phil. 2:8)
While he was being forsaken by His own Father God (Mt. 27:46).
Also, Jesus was crucified and died
As the Israelite wanted (Lk. 23:23).
