Alfred Edersheim (1825-1889), was raised Jewish. He studied at the University of
Vienna and New College, Edinburgh. After finding faith in the Messiah, he was
ordained in the Free Church of Scotland, and later the Church of England. His books
continue to be highly influential in bringing to life the background and details of the
Old T estament historical accounts. His “Church History” series is especially intended
for students, young people, and anyone who desires to deepen their understanding of
the Bible.
