Samuel Rutherford was een Schotse predikant en covenanter wiens geschriften diep ingaan op thema's van geloof en theologie. Zijn werk *Lex Rex*, geschreven tijdens een turbulente periode in de Engelse en Schotse geschiedenis, bepleitte beperkte overheidsmacht en daagde de absolute macht van koningen uit. Rutherford's stijl wordt gekenmerkt door diep theologisch inzicht en een gepassioneerde verdediging van zijn overtuigingen. Hoewel hij te maken kreeg met vervolging en ballingschap, had zijn inzet om zijn gedachten te delen via brieven en publicaties een blijvende impact op kerkelijk en politiek denken.
