J. F. Mozley

The Rev James Frederic Mozley (23 December 1887 – 8 July 1974) was a British historian and Anglican priest.[1][2][3]

He was educated at Exeter College, Oxford, where he studied the Literae humaniores and graduated with a BA in 1910.[4][5] He trained as an Anglican priest at Lichfield Theological College and was ordained in 1913.[6] In 1937 he published a biography of the Bible translator William Tyndale, in 1940 a study of John Foxe's Book of Martyrs and in 1953 a work on Miles Coverdale's translation of the Bible.[1] The Bible scholar Jack P. Lewis said Mozley's work "furnished excellent treatments of the Bibles of Coverdale and Tyndale".[7]
