Synopsis

This book is an eloquent exposition on the biblical basis for the subjects duty to their sovereign, penned at a time of fierce debate over the nature of civil authority. The author, a prominent minister, argues that while utmost submission to the monarch is generally required, there are certain conditions under which resistance is justified. Exploring the nature of civil government itself, this book contributes to the ongoing conversation about the relationship between the subject and the state, citizens and their rulers, and the appropriate checks and balances on power.
