Lex, Rex  (English, Paperback, Rutherford Samuel)

"Lex, Rex: The King and the Law" by Samuel Rutherford is a landmark work that explores the relationship between the king and the law in the context of political and religious freedom. Rutherford presents a compelling argument that the king should be subject to the law, emphasizing the principles of justice, constitutional rights, and the sovereignty of God. In a time of political unrest and religious persecution, Rutherford's powerful defense of civil and religious liberties challenged the prevailing notions of absolute monarchy. "Lex, Rex" remains an influential treatise on the rule of law and the rights of individuals, providing a foundation for modern concepts of constitutionalism and the limitations of governmental authority.
