QUEZADA DEL RIO, Javier. The king's right to make war in the Old Testament. Franciscanum [online]. 2014, vol.56, n.161, pp.153-173. ISSN 0120-1468.

The author analyses three moments of the king's right to make war in the Old Testament: during de conquest, through the semantic study of the word herem; at he beginning of the monarchy, comparing the monarchic tradition and the antimonarchic one in the first book of Samuel; and in the messianic psalms. He concludes that in the three moments, the king made war on the hand of God, not only against the enemies attacking Israel, but also to conquest the nations, because dominate them was the destiny of the elected people.
