About the author
William Sanday (1843-1920) was named Dean Ireland's Professor of Exegesis at Oxford in 1884. By 1895 he was Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity and became Chair of the Synoptics Seminar. The author of many books, including the seminal commentary on Romans, Sanday was truly one of the giants of twentieth century British biblical scholarship.
Frederic G. Kenyon (1863-1952) was the Director and Principal Librarian of the British Museum. A linguist, papyrologist, and paleographer, he worked on the biblical texts and classical literature. He was President of the British Academy from 1917 to 1921. Among his many publications are 'Recent Developments in the Textual Criticism of the Greek Bible', 'Our Bible and the Ancient Manuscripts', 'Books and Readers in Ancient Greece and Rome', and 'The Bible and Archaeology'.
F. Crawford Burkitt (1864-1935) was Norrisian Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge from 1905-35. His other publications include Evangelion da-Mepharreshe (1904), The Gospel History and Its Transmission (1906), and Earliest Sources for the Life of Jesus (1910). He was elected to the British Academy Fellowship in 1905.
