There are some sources who point clearly for his religious faith to have been a lot influenced by the Old Testament, which made him much more fanatic thowards Catholicism then the European Continental Reformers. This article from the "Catholic Encyclopedia" [1] points that he openly believed to be a moral duty of the "real" Christians" to slaughter the Catholics, which he saw as "idolaters". If this is true, I think it should be mentioned in the article. 85.240.21.40 ( talk) 20:07, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
The article had a link to Robert Bowes (lawyer) (who died in 1555) with the statement that he was Margery Bowes' brother. I've replaced it with a link to Robert Bowes (diplomat) (who died in 1597), who according to RS was Margery's brother. NinaGreen ( talk) 18:31, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
‘Death Knell for John Knox’ was directly inspired by Bellany's revelatory discovery in a biography of Knox that ‘he was not as white as the driven snow’. He has explained that Knox's death was melodramatic to the point that Strindberg or Ibsen looked like Walt Disney in comparison. Knox's passion for his sixteen year old step daughter was at its highest peak, his wife, her mother turned a blind eye to the iniquities. Then Knox had a nightmare that he was in Hell and woke from his vision a distraught and terrorised man and his death scene was hardly filled with singing of angelic choirs, but remorse and soul searching and extreme anguish of spirit and soul until the life left him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:8241:5600:95A5:8235:F950:3006 ( talk) 17:11, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
The name of John Knox's second wife is said to be Elizabeth Stewart and Margaret Stewart. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.26.12.86 ( talk) 12:46, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

n February 1549, after spending a total of 19 months in the galley-prison, Knox was released. It is uncertain how he obtained his liberty. Later in the year, Henry II arranged with Edward VI of England the release of all remaining Castilian prisoners.
Which Castilians were these ? This is the first and only mention.
