John William Burgon was een Engelse anglicaanse geestelijke, bekend om zijn gepassioneerde verdediging van de historiciteit en het mozaïsche auteurschap van Genesis en de bijbelse onfeilbaarheid in het algemeen. Zijn werk wordt gekenmerkt door een vurig engagement voor traditionele religieuze overtuigingen en hun onderbouwing met historisch bewijs. Burgons geschriften vallen op door hun retorische kracht en zijn vastberadenheid om de integriteit van heilige teksten te beschermen.
