Until Charles 1st British Monarchs claimed to get their authority direct from God, the Divine Right of Kings. In the 1640s Parliament became increasingly unhappy about this, partly for religious reasons, but partly because it was clear that the King did just what he felt like and God was not involved.
On 30th January 1649 King Charles 1 lost his head in Whitehall and a period of Parliamentary rule followed. When the monarchy was restored in 1660 with King Charles 11 it was in a constitutional framework. The King ruled through Parliament not God albeit he remained head of the Church of England.
While Charles III is reported to want a Coronation where a range of faiths participate the Church of England is sticking by the Divine Right of Kings.
The latest episode is the production of a special Coronation Bible, The tradition dates back to 1689 and the Archbishop of Canterbury commissioned Oxford University Press to produce a suitably embelished 2023 version. Welby is quoted as saying that the ‘Coronation will be a service of Christian Worship deeply rooted in the wisdom we find in Scripture’
Cromwell had a point
Sorry to nitpick but do you mean Charles 111 in that 3rd paragraph
