''Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible'' as it is commonly called, was used by many who helped to bring about the [[First Great Awakening]] in the 1700s. Henry's commentary stands in enduring contrast to the ethos of [[liberal Christianity]] against the Bible - its author, its purity, its infallibility - and about the divinity of Jesus Christ, which even then was being promoted in certain educational institutions. | + | [[Image:Matthew-henry.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Matthew Henry]]'''Matthew Henry''' (1662-1714) was a "nonconformist" [[Puritan]] [[minister]] in [[England]], and perhaps the most preeminent devotional Bible commentator.
