Thomas Manton Author

Thomas Manton (1620-1677) played a prominent part in drafting and publishing the Westminster Confession, and made major contributions to the Savoy Conference. He was pastor of a noted Puritan congregation in London but was later ejected from the official church for noncomformity, though he continued to preach wherever and whenever he had the opportunity. Archbishop Ussher called him "one of the greatest preachers in England". His sermons formed the basis of his published commentaries.
