John Kitto fu un biblista inglese la cui profonda comprensione delle scritture emerse da una vita segnata da difficoltà e avversità precoci. Salvato dalla povertà da amici che riconobbero il suo intelletto, trovò conforto e istruzione nei libri, perseguendo infine una carriera nella scrittura. Le sue esperienze di viaggio in Oriente e le sue intuizioni accademiche sui contesti biblici risuonarono profondamente con un vasto pubblico. Il lavoro di Kitto fornì interpretazioni accessibili di testi sacri, rendendolo una voce significativa nella erudizione biblica e nella sua diffusione popolare.
