“The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted”
““Yes,” he answered. When Peter entered the house, Jesus preempted him. “What do you think, Simon?” He asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs and taxes: from their own sons, or from others?””

When basileús is spoken over you
Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what basileús means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.
Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like Matthew 14:9 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
