Henry Smith (ca. 1550–1591?) was an English clergyman, widely regarded as "the most popular Puritan preacher of Elizabethan London."

Thomas Mockett (or Mocket) (1602-1670), was a puritan theologian and scholarly Reformed preacher of the Gospel.

From various texts in Matthew 13 concerning the Kingdom of God and the incomparable excellency of Jesus Christ, Mockett teaches that every Christian should, and the wise Christian will, willingly part with all for Christ and the grace of the Gospel.
