RIGHTS (the "revelation")
Rights are legal, social, or ethical principles of freedom or entitlement; that is, rights are the fundamental normative rules about what is allowed of people or owed to people, according to some legal system, social convention, or ethical theory. - WIKI
THE UNITED NATIONS

Kings and nobility historically were the origin of authority, and they granted rights and privileges to their subjects. The people held their liberties were dependent upon the pleasure of the rulers.
Nevertheless, America boldly proclaimed at its birth that some rights were endowed by man's very nature – and that individuals are incapable of relinquishing them. Because these rights are endowed in people from Nature's God, they are inherent in each individual and cannot be abandoned – in other words, such rights are unalienable.
In other words, "the sacred rights of mankind," Alexander Hamilton observed, "are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of divinity itself, and can never be erased or obscured by mortal power."
