Autorenporträt
Henry Alford (1810-1871) was a distinguished English theologian, biblical scholar, and clergyman renowned for his contributions to Christian doctrine and ecclesiastical literature. Educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, Alford was deeply committed to the study of theology and the interpretation of sacred texts. His most notable work is the Greek Testament, a comprehensive and influential commentary on the New Testament that reflects his scholarly rigor and profound understanding of biblical Greek. Alford's theological insights were grounded in a meticulous approach to biblical exegesis and a commitment to orthodox Christian doctrine. His writings explore key theological concepts such as the afterlife, resurrection, and the nature of salvation, contributing significantly to discussions on eschatology and moral theology. In addition to his scholarly work, Alford served as a clergyman and held several prominent positions within the Church of England, including the role of Dean of Canterbury. His influence extended beyond his lifetime, as his works continued to shape theological discourse and biblical scholarship. Alford's legacy is marked by his dedication to theological clarity and his profound impact on Christian thought and biblical interpretation.
