Edward Reynolds

Edward Reynolds (1599–1676) war ein englischer Geistlicher, Theologe und Bischof von Norwich. Er wirkte an der presbyterianischen Westminster-Synode mit, verfasste das allgemeine Dankgebet im anglikanischen Book of Common Prayer und geriet wegen seiner kirchenpolitischen Kompromisse zwischen Puritanern und Episkopalen in die Kritik beider Seiten. Heutigen Bibellesern begegnet er als reformierter Ausleger mit seelsorglicher Menschenkenntnis und prägnanter Gebetssprache.
