About John Eadie

John Eadie was born on May 9, 1810 at Alva, Stirlingshire, in Scotland. He spent many childhood years as the assistant to Rev. Browning, a local preacher. He studied at the University of Glasgow, where he excelled at the classical languages. Upon graduation, Eadie became an active member of the Succession Church, an influential nineteenth century Scottish Presbyterian denomination, which was later renamed the United Presbyterian Church.

In 1835, Eadie became a minister at the Cambridge Street Church is Glasgow. The church later moved to Lansdowne Crescent in 1863. In addition to his pastoral duties, Eadie became a professor of biblical literature and hermeneutics at the United Presbyterian Divinity Hall, and he received his D.D. from St. Andrews in 1850. During his industrious career at the Divinity Hall, Eadie penned the five New Testament commentaries for which he is best known. His writings contributed to the growing interest in biblical criticism and hermeneutics. Eadie died on June 3, 1876.
