LLOYD-JONES, David Martyn (1899-1981):

a distinguished Welsh physician who became a BAPTIST minister in 1929 was one of the great twentieth century Preachers. His popular Biblical expositions including Studies in the Sermon on the Mount (1959-1960) and his multi-volume Lectures on Romans (1955-1968), as well as his lectures on PURITAN THEOLOGY helped revitalize British and American EVANGELICALISM by encouraging a revival of evangelical scholarship allied to pastoral concerns.
