Inhaltsangabe

The letters of Samuel Rutherford (1600-1661) have been a source of encouragement and inspiration to Christians for over 350 years; but to the modern reader their language and structure can often hinder the enjoyment of their true value. In 1913, Hamilton Smith (1862-1943) set out to make the heart of the letters (and of Rutherford himself) more accessible to the reader of his day. He organised a selection of extracts under topical headings covering such themes as warning, peace, evil, the Devil, death, comfort, pilgrimage, glory and, above all, Christ. Retaining Rutherford's original text, with occasional explanatory footnotes, he created a volume of devotional readings which have stood the test of time in sharing Rutherford's passion for the love of Christ. The publisher is pleased to make this classic work available once again.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

SAMUEL RUTHERFORD (1600-1661), a Scottish-born Presbyterian minister, scholar, and writer, was influential in Scottish politics through his sermons and widely read theories. His philosophies on limiting government resulted in a charge of high treason, however, he died before the trial. GEORGE BUCHANAN (1506-1582) was lauded as one of the most profound intellectuals of sixteenth-century Scotland. His writing advocated for power to the people and weakening of the monarchy which incited the ire of political pundits and was condemned by an act of parliament.
