140 Years of Oxford & Cambridge Theology Lectures

The Bampton Lectures were inaugurated at the University of Oxford in 1780 at the behest of William Bampton. Bampton, who left Oxford a generous bequest of land and estates, stipulated that the university in turn establish an annual series of eight lectures to be delivered in the University Church. His will specifically required that:

  • The Oxford and Cambridge college heads choose the lecturers
  • No person be qualified to preach unless he or she hold at least an MA from one of the two universities
  • The same person never preach twice
  • The lectures be published within two months of their delivery

The Bampton Lecture Series (127 vols.) contains over 1,000 lectures from over 100 theologians and preachers. Spanning 1780 to 1920, these lectures cover a wide spectrum of theological topics. From the topical debates of the nineteenth century—biblical inerrancy, creation and evolution, the Oxford movement, and more—to entire volumes dedicated to Jesus’ life, the Reformation, and primitive Church history, this collection has it all.

With the Logos Bible Software edition, all Scripture passages in the Bampton Lecture Series are tagged and appear on mouseover. What’s more, Scripture references are linked to the resources in your digital library. Research that would normally take hours of page turning can now be completed with a few clicks! This makes all 127 volumes more powerful and easier to access than ever before for scholarly work or personal Bible study. With Logos’ advanced features, you can perform powerful searches by topic or Scripture reference—finding, for example, every mention of “grace” or “covenant.”

Note: No lectures were given for the years 1834, 1835, 1841, 1896, 1898, 1900, 1902, 1904, 1906, 1908, 1910, 1912, 1914, 1916–1919.
