Definition: "Kings" is a biblical term that refers to rulers, especially those of royal or princely descent. It was also used by Paul and other Christians for individuals who were considered to be in an elite position as part of their religious commitment. In the Old Testament, "king" can mean both the ruler's title or his rule over a specific region or country. For example, King David rules over Israel, but he is also called king in reference to his father's kingdom in Shiloh (Exodus 25:1). Similarly, Jesus is often identified as the "kings of Israel" because he was part of the early disciples and served under a king. In the New Testament, King Jesus is sometimes referred to as the Christ or Christ, which refers to his kingdom over the Gentiles. This title comes from the Hebrew word "kine," meaning "king." The phrase "Akin" in Scripture may refer to a person who has the same bloodline or lineage as another individual. In this context, it could be used to describe an individual whose family history is closely associated with that of an identified "Akins." The exact definition and meaning of "Akin" vary among different biblical manuscripts. It's important to note that these definitions are often based on the theological and cultural contexts of the time periods in which they were written. They do not necessarily reflect modern understandings of ethnicity or ancestry, as is more likely found in ancient religious texts like those in the Hebrew Bible.
