About the author
Born in 1851 and active as both a minister and a teacher, this Scottish scholar became closely associated with Westminster College, Cambridge, where he served as principal and professor of Old Testament language and literature.
He wrote widely on the Hebrew Bible, including books on Ezekiel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Genesis. His commentary on Genesis for the International Critical Commentary series is especially well known and was long valued by students and ministers.
Available sources agree on the broad outline of his career and dates, though detailed biographical information is limited in the material I could confirm here. He died in 1925, leaving behind a body of work that remained influential in biblical studies for many years.
