from this generation for ever." (Psalm 12:6-7)
The Dean
Burgon Society's Conference A Blessing
THE DEAN BURGON SOCIETY, INC., proudly takes its name in
honor of John William Burgon (1813-1888), the Dean of Chichester
in England, whose tireless and accurate scholarship and
contribution in the area of New Testament Textual Criticism;
whose defense of the Traditional Greek New Testament Text
against its many enemies; and whose firm belief in the verbal
inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible; we believe, have all
been unsurpassed either before or since his time.
