[Avodah] What would a Torah government look like

[Gershon Dubin]

From: "Shmuel Weidberg" <ezrawax at gmail.com>

<<I don't think there ever was a court Navi. For one thing, Shmuel who
would presumably have been Shaul's court Navi does not seem to have
stayed with the court. And it's not clear that Nosson stayed in
David's court. And we find no such concept by any of the other kings.
In any case, the Navi was independent of the King completely.>>

Rav Yaakov Kamenecki describes this concept explicitly in his sefer on
Chumash.
