About the author
Born in 1857, William Ewing was a Scottish minister, author, and historian. Available records describe him as a Free Church of Scotland clergyman who studied at the Universities of Glasgow and Leipzig and later served in Palestine, Birmingham, and Scotland.
His writing reflects both scholarship and direct experience. He is known for Arab and Druze at Home, based on his years in Palestine, and for editing or compiling substantial religious reference works including The Temple Dictionary of the Bible and Annals of the Free Church of Scotland, 1843–1900.
Ewing died in 1932. His books remain of interest to readers looking for early 20th-century perspectives on the Bible lands, church history, and the religious culture of Scotland and the Middle East.
