Overview

The J. A. Wylie Collection contains 25 volumes from one of Scotland’s most important nineteenth-century theological historians. The writings of Wylie offer extensive treatments of the history of Protestantism, the history of Scotland and the Scottish Reformation, the Scottish Disruption of 1843, and much more. Like Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, Wylie’s two-volume The Scots Worthies contains the inspiring stories of faithful Scottish Christians who died for their faith. This collection also includes two works on the interpretation and fulfillment of prophecy in the Bible, Wylie’s highly popular commentary on the Book of Revelation, a volume on the Waldensians, and much more.

In the Logos Bible Software edition, all Scripture passages in J. A. Wylie Collection are tagged to appear on mouse-over. For scholarly work or personal Bible study, this makes these resources more powerful and easier to access than ever before. Perform powerful searches by topic or Scripture reference—finding, for example, every mention of “resurrection” or “Mark 9:2.”
