The most accurate comparison between Hobbes's and Locke's perspectives on the divine right of kings is:

**Hobbes supported the divine right of kings as absolute monarchs.**

Hobbes believed in a strong, centralized authority to prevent chaos and conflict, which he justified through the idea of the social contract leading to an absolute sovereign, often seen as having a divine right. In contrast, Locke was critical of the divine right of kings and advocated for a government that was accountable to the people and based on their consent. Therefore, Hobbes's support for the divine right contrasts sharply with Locke's views against it.
