Über den Autor
Frederic William Farrar (1831–1903) was a renowned biblical scholar, cleric, and author, best known for his contributions to the study of scripture and for his efforts to reconcile the divergent realms of science and religion in the late 19th century. Educated at King’s College London and later at Trinity College, Cambridge, Farrar became a figure of considerable influence within the Anglican church, ascending to the position of Dean of Canterbury in 1895. His erudition in biblical studies led him to produce numerous works of enduring significance to the exegetical community. Among such contributions is ‚The Expositor’s Bible: The Book of Daniel‘, a commentary that provides an in-depth analysis of the prophetic book of Daniel, examining its historical context, its linguistic nuances, and its theological implications. Farrar was well-known for his eloquent style and his narrative-driven approach to theological exposition, which made his works accessible to the Victorian laity as well as the clerical readership. His writings often reflected his progressive views, in which he advocated for a more compassionate and rational Christianity, and his literary style was characterized by a fusion of robust academic rigor with a pastoral concern for the spiritual welfare of his readers. Farrar’s legacy extends beyond his scholastic achievements as a celebrated preacher, educational reformer, and a prolific author whose other literary outputs include ‚Life of Christ‘ (1874) and ‚Life and Work of St. Paul‘ (1879).
