Scot McKnight (born 1953) is an American New Testament scholar, historian of early Christianity, theologian, and author who has written widely on the historical Jesus, early Christianity and Christian living. He is currently the Julius R. Mantey Chair of New Testament at Northern Baptist Theological Seminary in Lisle, Illinois,[1][2] but announced in January 2024 that he would leave the faculty by the end of the academic year, due to allegations of mismanagement in Northern.[3]
McKnight is an ordained Anglican deacon and canon theologian for the Diocese of Churches for the Sake of Others with anabaptist leanings, and has also written on issues in modern anabaptism.[4][5]
