About the Author:
William Kelly (1821-1906) : Biblical Literalist, Conservative Intellectual, and Mystic. He has been called ‘the last prominent survivor of the first generation of Brethren (so-called)’, and was widely acclaimed as an outstanding biblical scholar.
During his time in Guernsey, he published much of his own material, as well as overseeing the publication of the writings of other authors in the magazine. His first major book was in 1860, a commentary on the book of Revelation, based on his own Greek text. This was to set the standard of his later publications, of which most were produced while he was in Guernsey.
William Kelly was a prominate member of the Plymouth Brethren. He was one of their most prolific writers, including being the editor of a monthly magazine called The Bible Treasury.
The Bible Treasurywas a monthly magazine of papers on scriptural subjects. Various authors submitted articles to the magazine. With over 1000 articles published within its nearly 70 years run,The Bible Treasuryhas a great cross-section of articles on Bible doctrine and general Bible topics of the times.
The Plymouth Brethren were founded in the 1820s because of concern of the failures of the existing churches of the time. The Brethres “assemblies” are independent and thus may have slight variations in doctrine, but doctines thay hold in common are the recognition of all believers as part of the body of Christ and the priesthood of all believers. Furthermore, most Brethren churches are also pre-tribulational and dispensational.
Notable Brethren besides Kelly includeJohn Nelson Darby, George Müller, G. H. Pember, Hudson Taylor, F. F. Bruce, Jim Elliot, H. A. Ironside, George Muller, W. E. Vine, Watchman Nee, and William MacDonald
