Surenhusius
(Surenhus), WILLEM, professor of Greek and Hebrew at Amsterdam, flourished in the end of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th century. He edited a beautifully printed edition of the Mischna, sive totius Hebraeorum Juris, Rituum, Antiquitatum, et Legum Oralium Systema, cune Clarissimorum Rabbinorumn Main onidis et Bartenorce Comometariis Integris, etc. (Amst. 1690-1703, 6 vols. fol.) which has ever since remained the best edition (see Wolf, Bibl. Hebr. 2, 886). He published also ספרה משוה, sive Βίβλος Καταλλαγῆς, in quo secundum Vett. Theoli. Heb. formulas allegandi et modos interpretandi conciliantur loca ex V. in N.T. allegata (ibid. 1713, 4to), a work of unsurpassed value on the subject to which it relates.
The Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature was edited by John McClintock and James Strong. It contains nearly 50,000 articles pertaining to Biblical and other religious literature, people, creeds, etc. It is a fantastic research tool for broad Christian study.
John McClintock was born October 27, 1814 in Philadelphia to Irish immigrants, John and Martha McClintock. He began as a clerk in his father's store, and then became a bookkeeper in the Methodist Book Concern in New York. Here he converted to Methodism and considered joining the ministry. McClintock entered the University of Pennsylvania in 1832 and graduated with high honors three years later. Subsequently, he was awarded a doctorate of divinity degree from the same institution in 1848.WikipediaRead More
