Robert Murray M‘Cheyne

1813–1843 · Church of Scotland (evangelical) · Dundee, Scotland

Robert Murray M‘Cheyne (1813–1843), minister of St Peter’s, Dundee, from 1836, was the most revered of the young evangelical ministers of the Church of Scotland before the Disruption; a revival broke out in his congregation in 1839 while he was on a mission of inquiry to the Jews in Palestine. He died of typhus aged twenty-nine; Andrew Bonar’s Memoir and Remains (1844) made his sermons and letters famous.
