If you look into the Hebrew a little more, the word we translate here as “God” is “Elohim”, which is better translated as something like “spiritual beings”. This word is also used for angels, demons, etc.
In fact, the phrase “Lord of Lords” is actually “Elohim of Elohim”, making it a statement that he’s the greatest spiritual being, which is a lot more distinct from “King of Kings” than we usually notice when he’s referred to as “King of kings and Lord of lords”.
Elohim is even used once to refer to the “ghost” of Samuel, when Saul seeks out a medium to ask him for advice in 1 Samuel 28.
