About the Author
Philip Edgcumbe Hughes, Bdiv, MA, was an Anglican clergyman and scholar whose life spanned four continents: Australia, where he was born, South Africa, England, where he was ordained, and the United States, where he died in 1990, aged 75. From 1947 to 1953 he taught at Tyndale Hall, Bristol; for the next three years he was Secretary of Church Society; in 1959 he became editor of the Churchman and continued in that role with great distinction till 1967. In 1964 he moved to the United States and was Visiting Professor at Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia and Associate Rector of St. John's Episcopal Church, Huntington Valley, Pennsylvania.
In theology, he was a firm Calvinist, but had the breadth of sympathies of a true scholar. His writings are solid in substance and graceful in style. His works include: Commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews, Lefevre: Pioneer of Ecclesiastical Renewal in France, The True Image, Theology of the English Reformers, and But for the Grace of God.
