James H. Morey is an American academic. He is Professor of English at Emory University.

Morey is a graduate of Hamilton College. He holds a PhD form Cornell University.

Morey's Book and Verse is regarded as the standard work on English Biblical paraphrases. In it, Morey argues that Biblical material was widely available in English from the 12th-century on, and that the Church's opposition was not to translation per se but to the Lollard encouragement of lay interpretation of the Bible.
