Alexander Thomson (writer)


Alexander Thomson was a banker and occasional religious writer involved in the work of the Concordant Publishing Concern, publishers of the Concordant Literal Version of the Bible.
Thomson was credited for corrections included in the 1944 revision of the Concordant Version. Commentary by Thomson was published in the Concordant Publishing Concern's bimonthly magazine Unsearchable Riches. Later, from about 1950 until soon before his death, Thomson was an editor and contributor for the periodical The Differentiator, which reviewed and commented upon Bible topics. The circulation never exceeded 200 subscribers.
Ernest Oliver Knoch, son of CPC founder Adolph Ernst Knoch and former editor of Unsearchable Riches, wrote of Thomson:
Thomson's critics claim he had no formal credentials, such as a degree in biblical studies, theology, or ancient languages.
