A Jewish king must write a personal Sefer Torah in addition to the general one.
This mitzvah commands that when a Jewish king ascends the throne, he must write a personal Sefer Torah, in addition to the one every Jew is obligated to write. This Torah must remain with him at all times, serving as a constant reminder of his duty to rule with humility, justice, and devotion to Hashem’s commandments. The king is thereby bound to Torah guidance in both private and public life.
