King:
S 2:246 Have you not looked at the chiefs of the Banu Isra’il after Musa, when they said to a prophet of theirs: Raise a king for us that we may fight in the way of Allah? He said: Would you perhaps, if fighting were written upon you, not fight? They said: And what is wrong with us not to fight in the way of Allah while we have been expelled from our homes and our sons? But when fighting was written upon them they turned away except a few of them. And Allah is learned in the wrongdoers.
S 2:247 And their prophet said to them: Allah has raised Talut for you as king. They said: How can he have the dominion over us while we are worthier of the dominion than he is and he has not been given capacity of money? He said: Allah has chosen him over you and increased him in capability in knowledge and body. And Allah gives his dominion to whom he wills. And Allah is wide, learned.

S 12:76 So he began with their vessels before his brother’s vessel then brought it out from his brother’s vessel. Thus did we scheme for Yusuf. He would not take his brother in the king’s law but that Allah wills. We raise in degrees whom we will and learned above every possessor of knowledge.
Who is the one that is above every possessor of knowledge?
Muslims like to say that the Quran 'correctly' calls the Pharaoh a 'king'. Why does the author call him that? Because he thinks that Fir'awn (Pharaoh) is a proper name. See my post: People of Pharaoh or Family of Fir’awn?
