He was graduated at Capitol university, Columbus, Ohio, in 1872, and at its theological department in 1874, afterward studied in the universities of Tubingen and Leipsic, and in 1876 took at the latter the degree of Ph.D. In 1877 he was ordained to the Lutheran ministry in Ohio, and was pastor at Martin's Ferry, Ohio, until 1 January, 1880, when he was elected professor in Capitol university. He is eminent as a Semitic scholar, and has done much to promote the study of Hebrew, Arabic, Syriac, Ethiopic, and other languages. He has for several years been an instructor of Hebrew, Arabic, and Syriac in the Summer schools of Hebrew under Professor William R. Harper, of Yale. He has written largely for periodicals, and in the "Bibliotheca Sacra" has published the first complete translation from the Ethiopic of the "Book of Jubilees" (1885-'7). His other works are " The Book of Enoch, translated from the Ethiopic, with Introduction and Notes " (Andover, 1S82), and " A Day in Capernaum," translated from the German of Delitzsch (New York, 1887).
