Edmund Gamaliel Gheast (also known as Guest, Geste or Gest; 1514–1577) was a 16th-century cleric of the Church of England. Guest was born at Northallerton, Yorkshire, the son of Thomas Geste. He was educated at York Grammar School and Eton College and became a scholar of King's College, Cambridge in 1536 (fellow from 1539 to 1554, BA in 1541, MA in 1544, BD in 1551).〔http://venn.csi.cam.ac.uk/〕 He was chaplain to Archbishop Matthew Parker who made him Archdeacon of Canterbury (1559–1564) and Rector of Cliffe, Kent. He became Bishop of Rochester in 1560, holding the office of Archdeacon of Canterbury ''in commendam''.〔(British History Online: Archdeacons of Canterbury 1541–1857 ): ''Fasti Ecclesiae Anglicanae'', volume 3: Canterbury, Rochester and Winchester dioceses (1974), pp. 15–17. Date accessed: 10 January 2010.〕 He was then Bishop of Salisbury from 1571 to his death in 1577. He was buried in Salisbury Cathedral.〔Jane Freeman, ‘Guest, Edmund (1514–1577)’, ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, September 2004; online edn, May 2009 (), accessed 10 January 2010〕 In 1563, he participated in the Convocation that met under Archbishop Matthew Parker to revise the ''Forty-Two Articles''.〔http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01498a.htm Catholic Encyclopedia Anglicanism〕 Convocation passed only 39 of the 42, and Queen Elizabeth reduced the number to 38 by throwing out Article XXIX to avoid offending the Roman Catholic party.〔 In 1571, the XXIXth Article, despite the opposition of Bishop Guest, was inserted, to the effect that the wicked do not eat the Body of Christ.〔http://www.episcopalian.org/pbs1928/Articles/AnglicanTeaching/007.HTM ''Anglican Teaching'' by W. G. WILSON, M.A., B.D., Ph.D. and J.H. TEMPLETON. M.A., B.D.. M.LITT.. Ph.D.〕 The ''Thirty-Nine Articles'' were ratified by the Queen, and the bishops and clergy were required to assent.〔 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edmund Gheast」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
