André Rivet

André Rivet (Andreas Rivetus) (August 1572 – 7 January 1651) was a French Huguenot theologian.

In 1632 Stadholder Frederick Henry appointed Rivet tutor of his son, later William II, while the university made him honorary professor.

[1] In 1646 was appointed as the first Rector of the new Orange College of Breda, where he passed the remainder of his life and died.

Archibald Alexander devotes a chapter of his Thoughts on Religious Experience to Rivet's "death-bed exercises".

They were collected in three volumes (Rotterdam, 1651–53), one of the most notable being the Isagoge ad scripturam sacram Veteris et Novi Testamenti (Dort, 1616).
