J.C. Ryle’s Commentaries on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John

John Charles Ryle was the first Anglican bishop of Liverpool. Ryle was educated at Christ Church, Oxford where he was also a gifted athlete who played cricket and rowed. Ryle was born to a wealthy family and it seemed likely that he would have a career in politics before joining the ministry. Ryle was ordained in 1842.

Ryle supported the evangelical school and was a strong critic of Ritualism. Ryle was a writer as well as a pastor. Ryle’s writing strongly advocates his beliefs yet has a comforting disposition for the reader. This edition of Ryle’s Commentaries on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John includes a working table of contents.
