Handley C. G. Moule (1841-1920), evangelical Anglican bishop and academic, was one of the foremost New Testament scholars in the Church of England in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The author of more than sixty books and pamphlets, Moule followed in the English scholar-bishop tradition of Lightfoot and Westcott. A. W. Handley Moule (born 1903) is a great-nephew to Handley C. G. Moule. Educated at Brighton College, he is a historian and a former Scholar of Queens' College, Cambridge. He has read for Holy Orders at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford, and has traveled to Palestine. After teaching for a number of years, he was ordained in 1932 and has had extensive experience in London, in Lancashire and on the Continent. Since 1943, he has served as Rector of Woolhampton, Berkshire. This book has been composed by an experienced pastor and is the product of the last nine years of intermittent literary activity in an English country Parsonage.
