I think we've just gotten into the semantics over what ruler and a leader are. Caesar ruled the Roman Empire, but I find nothing admirable in him. Jesus ruled over no one, yet was a great leader.

Well, perhaps it is a semantic issue. Jesus ruled and still rules over all that there is. But there are good rulers and bad rulers. David was a good one. Rehoboam was a bad one. Davad served his people (although not faultlessly). Rehoboam served himself.

Shalom.
