Who is the Puritan pictured above? Thomas _________? (See answer below).
I've just taken delivery of Joel Beeke and Randall Pederson's helpful guide - Meet The Puritans. It gives pen pictures of about 125 Divines plus another 11 each from Scotland and Holland with various other extras. Its main usefulness is in detailing what works have been reprinted in recent years. At nearly 900 pages it is quite a feat. Here for no particualr reason ecept to stir some interest is a list of 10 Puritans all called Thomas. The first five are important and fairly well known, the others less so.
1. Thomas Adams - see my blog
2. Thomas Brooks - pithy writer, author of 'Precious Remedies'
3. Thomas Goodwin - Independent Westminster divine, works 12 vols
4. Thomas Manton - works in 22 vols
5. Thomas Watson - author of Body of Divinity, etc
6. Thomas Cartwright - early Presbyterian, wrote on Colossians
7. Thomas Case - wrote on afflictions and heaven
8. Thomas Jacomb - commentary on Romans 8
9. Thomas Taylor - wrote on Old Testament hermeneutics and Titus
10. Thomas Vincent - wrote on shorter catechism, fire of 1666, etc
