|
|
fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, he became Hulsean professor
|
|
of divinity (1861) and Lady Margaret professor (1875). In 1871 he
|
|
became a canon of St. Paul's, London; in 1879 he was consecrated
|
|
bishop of Durham. He was learned in biblical and early Christian
|
|
literature. From 1870 to 1880 he was one of the revisers of the
|
|
King James Version of the Bible. He published commentaries (3
|
|
vol., 1865-75) on St. Paul's epistles to the Galatians,
|
|
Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon. His editions of the
|
|
Apostolic Fathers include Clement of Rome (1869) and Ignatius and
|
|
Polycarp (1885).
