H. P. Liddon (1829–1890) was one of the nineteenth century’s most influential theologians and most popular preachers. Born in England in 1829, he studied at King’s College and Christ Church, Oxford.
In 1864, Liddon was appointed prebendary of Salisbury Cathedral. In 1870, he became canon of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, where thousands listened to him preach every Sunday. Later that year, he was appointed Dean Ireland's Professor of the Exegesis of Holy Scripture at Oxford.
Liddon retired from his professorship in 1882, at which point he traveled extensively, on occasion with his good friend Lewis Carroll. He wrote many commentaries, including Explanatory Analysis of St. Paul’s Epistle to the Romans and Explanatory Analysis of St. Paul’s First Epistle to Timothy.
