Friedrich A. G. Tholuck (1799 to 1877)
Lutheran
Steadfast Opponent of So-Called "Rationalism."
Friedrich A. G. Tholuck was born at Breslau, Germany. In 1826 he became
Lutheran professor of dogmatics and exegesis at the University of Halle, where
he taught until his death 51 years later. A steadfast opponent of rationalism
in Biblical and theological studies, he published commentaries on John, Romans,
Hebrews and the Psalms, and wrote several other books. Tholuck, through his
connection with the revival movement of that time, did much to further the
cause of conservative Biblical scholarship in his day.
