Samuel Preiswerk (Rümlingen, 19 September 1799 – Basel, 13 January 1871)[1][2] was a Swiss Reformed Lutheran theologian, pastor[2] and church hymn poet.
His Hebrew Grammar work was released there, written in French, and went through four editions.
Seeking to maintain his connection with representatives of Edward Irving his job was lost in 1837.
He moved to Basel in 1839, and in 1840 became a Hebrew teacher and pastor at St. Leonhard Church.
From 1859 he was pastor of the Münster parish, later rising to director of the church and school system.
