The Oriel and Laing Professor of the Interpretation of Holy Scripture (until 1991 the Oriel Professor of the Interpretation of Holy Scripture) is a chair in theology, particular Old Testament studies, at the University of Oxford. Oriel College, Oxford, decided in 1876 to establish a chair in theology, funded by the revenue from a canonry at Rochester Cathedral controlled by the college. The first professor, John Wordsworth, was appointed in 1883. The chair was renamed in 1991 to mark a donation from the Laing Foundation that secured its endowment. The professorship carries with it a fellowship of Oriel College. ==List of holders== *John Wordsworth 1883–85 *Thomas Kelly Cheyne 1885–1908 *George Albert Cooke 1908–14 *Charles Fox Burney 1914–25 *David Capell Simpson 1925–50 *Hedley Sparks 1952–76 *James Barr 1976–78 *Ernest Nicholson 1979–90 *John Barton 1991–2014 (now Emeritus Professor) *Hindy Najman; July 2015-present 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oriel and Laing Professor of the Interpretation of Holy Scripture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
