Autorenporträt

Charles John Ellicott (1819-1905) was a distinguished English theologian and Biblical scholar of the nineteenth century. As the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, Ellicott was deeply involved in the religious and educational domains of his time. His scholastic endeavors are exemplified in his influential works, particularly in 'Addresses on the Revised Version of Holy Scripture' which scrutinizes the revisions made to the English translation of the Bible. Ellicott's proficiency in Greek and Hebrew, along with his theological expertise, allowed him to contribute significantly to the revision process, emphasizing the importance of linguistic accuracy and doctrinal fidelity in translating sacred texts. His contribution was vital to the development of the English Revised Version (ERV) of the Bible, which had a profound impact on subsequent Biblical scholarship and translations. Ellicott's literary style is characterized by meticulous analysis, clear exposition, and an unwavering commitment to the original meanings of Biblical texts. His works continue to be referenced for their precision and scholarly depth in the field of Biblical exegesis and hermeneutics.
