Robert Govett

Robert Govett (14 February 1813 in Staines, Middlesex – 20 February 1901 in Norwich, Norfolk) was a British theologian and independent pastor of Surrey Chapel, Norwich.

Govett wrote many books and brochures. His best known work is The Apocalypse: Expounded by Scripture (1861–65), which he wrote under a pen name. Wilbur M. Smith said about it: "One of the profoundest expositions of the book of Revelation that I know of is the work of Robert Govett. My own opinion is that he brings to his interpretation a more thorough knowledge of the Scriptures in their bearing on the last book of the Bible than any other writer of his generation."
