Matthew Poole (1624–1679) was a Presbyterian minister, renowned theologian, and biblical scholar. He began studying at Cambridge's Emmanuel College in 1645, completing his B.A. in 1649 and his M.A. in 1652. He also was bestowed an M.A. at Oxford by Richard Cromwell during a 1657 visit. Upon completing his initial studies, he took over the preaching responsibilities of St Michael le Querne in London. He preached there until the passing of the Act of Uniformity in 1662, which resulted in him being removed from his position due to controversial opinions.
He continued to author various tracts and other works, eventually moving to Amsterdam where he died a year after moving. At the time, he was still writing his magnum opus, Annotations upon the Holy Bible, only having reached Isaiah. His friends and family completed the work, publishing it in three volumes from 1683-85.
