Edward Veal (or Veale), English Puritan (? - June 6, 1708), was a noted minister who served in both England and Ireland. He was ordained in 1657. He later served as a senior fellow at Trinity College in Dublin. He contributed four of the Cripplegate Sermons: 1) What spiritual Knowledge they ought to seek for, that desire to be saved, and by what Means they may attain it; 2) How may we experience in ourselves, and evidence to others, that serious Godliness is more than a Fancy?; 3) What is the Danger of a Death-bed Repentance?; and 4) Whether the good Works of Believers are meritorious of eternal Salvation. He wrote the commentary on Ephesians, James, 1 & 2 Peter and Jude found in Matthew Poole's Annotations. With Richard Adams, he edited and published Stephen Charnock's Discourse on Divine Providence (1680) and with Samuel Clarke he edited and published the third edition of Matthew Poole's Annotations (1696).
