Kuenen

Kuenen, Abraham (b. 1828), a Dutch theologian, born at Haarlem and educated at Leyden, where in 1855 he became a professor. His bold and original methods of criticism of the Scriptures wrought a revolution in Biblical criticism. His Ristorisch-Kritisch Onderzoek naar het Ontstaan en de Verzameling van de Boeken des ouden Verbonds was published in 1861-65, and in part translated by Colenso. He published a second edition of this work, also De Godsdienst van Israel tot den Ondergmg van den Joodschen Staat (translated into English), and Be Profeten en de Profetie onder Israel. He also wrote many articles and lectures on national and universal religions.
