Westminster Assembly. The synod appointed by the Long Parliament in 1643 to reform the English Church. It consisted of 30 lay assessors and 121 clergymen of widely different views; when the
Solemn League and Covenant was adopted it was increased by five clerical and three lay Commissioners from
Scotland.
The Assembly began by revising the
Thirty-Nine Articles, but with the appearance of the Solemn League and Covenant it turned to the production of a new formula, the
Westminster Confession (q.v.). It also prepared the Directory of Public Worship (q.v.) and the two
Westminster Catechisms (q.v.). Although only partially and temporarily accepted in England, these documents came into general use throughout the
Presbyterian world.
