Denney, James, 1856-1917

James Denney (1856–1917) was a Scottish theologian, New Testament scholar and minister, known for his biblical commentaries and theological works. Three of his works are held here, all reflecting a style that combines practical service to the church with scholarly care. Among them, The Expositor's Bible: The Second Epistle to the Corinthians and The Expositor's Bible: The Epistles to the Thessalonians belong to the Expositor's Bible series, which explains the text section by section for general readers, attending to literary context and practical application; The Atonement and the Modern Mind addresses the tension between the doctrine of atonement and modern thought, showing his theological concerns. Because public information is limited, biographical details cannot be set out here, but these works sufficiently reflect his lasting influence in New Testament interpretation and doctrinal discussion.
