Shark \Shark\, n. [Of uncertain origin; perhaps through OF. fr.       carcharus a kind of dogfish, Gr. karchari`as, so called from       its sharp teeth, fr. ka`rcharos having sharp or jagged teeth;       or perhaps named from its rapacity (cf. {Shark}, v. t. & i.);       cf. Corn. scarceas.]       1. (Zo[94]l.) Any one of numerous species of elasmobranch             fishes of the order Plagiostomi, found in all seas.          Note: Some sharks, as the basking shark and the whale shark,                grow to an enormous size, the former becoming forty                feet or more, and the latter sixty feet or more, in                length. Most of them are harmless to man, but some are                exceedingly voracious. The man-eating sharks mostly                belong to the genera {Carcharhinus}, {Carcharodon}, and                related genera. They have several rows of large sharp                teeth with serrated edges, as the great white shark                ({Carcharodon carcharias, [or] Rondeleti}) of tropical                seas, and the great blue shark ({Carcharhinus glaucus})                of all tropical and temperate seas. The former                sometimes becomes thirty-six feet long, and is the most                voracious and dangerous species known. The rare                man-eating shark of the United States coast                ({Charcarodon Atwoodi}) is thought by some to be a                variety, or the young, of {C. carcharias}. The dusky                shark ({Carcharhinus obscurus}), and the smaller blue                shark ({C. caudatus}), both common species on the coast                of the United States, are of moderate size and not                dangerous. They feed on shellfish and bottom fishes.          2. A rapacious, artful person; a sharper. [Colloq.]          3. Trickery; fraud; petty rapine; as, to live upon the shark.             [Obs.] --South.          {Baskin shark}, {Liver shark}, {Nurse shark}, {Oil shark},       {Sand shark}, {Tiger shark}, etc. See under {Basking},             {Liver}, etc. See also {Dogfish}, {Houndfish},             {Notidanian}, and {Tope}.          {Gray shark}, the sand shark.          {Hammer-headed shark}. See {Hammerhead}.          {Port Jackson shark}. See {Cestraciont}.          {Shark barrow}, the eggcase of a shark; a sea purse.          {Shark ray}. Same as {Angel fish}             (a), under {Angel}.          {Thrasher} shark, [or] {Thresher shark}, a large, voracious             shark. See {Thrasher}.          {Whale shark}, a huge harmless shark ({Rhinodon typicus}) of             the Indian Ocean. It becomes sixty feet or more in length,             but has very small teeth.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Theocracy       a word first used by Josephus to denote that the Jews were under       the direct government of God himself. The nation was in all       things subject to the will of their invisible King. All the       people were the servants of Jehovah, who ruled over their public       and private affairs, communicating to them his will through the       medium of the prophets. They were the subjects of a heavenly,       not of an earthly, king. They were Jehovah's own subjects, ruled       directly by him (comp. 1 Sam. 8:6-9).
