About J. J. van Oosterzee

J. J. van Oosterzee (1817–1882) was a Dutch evangelical preacher, teacher, and theologian. He attended the University of Utrecth, Netherlands from 1835 to 1839. Between 1841 and 1862, Oosterzee served as a pastor at Eemnes-Binnen, Alkmaar, and Rodderdam. In 1863, he was appointed professor of biblical and practical theology at the University of Utrecht, where he taught until his death. In 1877, Dutch law forbid faculty to teach on biblical, dogmatic, and practical theology, so Oosterzee instead taught on the philosophy of religion, New Testament introduction, and the history of Christian dogma. Oosterzee devoted much of his studies to theological science. Among his numerous published works are sermons, lectures, articles, and treatises.
