Joseph Huntington

Joseph Huntington (1735–1817) was an American Congregationalist minister and theologian whose work exemplified the intellectual currents of late eighteenth-century New England Protestantism. His treatise *God Ruling the Nations for the Most Glorious End* articulated a providential theology that sought to reconcile divine sovereignty with human agency during the tumultuous period of American independence and early republic formation. Huntington's theological contributions reflected broader Calvinist concerns with theodicy and the relationship between God's governance and national destiny, positioning him as a significant voice in the development of American religious thought during the Revolutionary era.
