See also:BRIGGS, See also:CHARLES See also:AUGUSTUS (1841– ) , See also:American See also:Hebrew See also:scholar and theologian, was See also:born in New See also:York See also:City on the 15th of See also:January 1841. He was educated at the university of See also:Virginia (1857–186o), graduated at the See also:Union Theological See also:Seminary in 1863, and studied further at the university of See also:Berlin. He was pastor of the Presbyterian See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

church of Roselle, New See also:Jersey, 1869–1874, and See also:professor of Hebrew and cognate See also:languages in Union Theological Seminary 1874–1891, and of Biblical See also:theology there from 1891 to 1904, when he became professor of theological See also:encyclopaedia and symbolics. From 188o to 1890 he was an editor of the Presbyterian See also:Review. In 1892 he was tried for See also:heresy by the See also:presbytery of New York and acquitted. The charges were based upon his inaugural address of the preceding See also:year. In brief they were as follows: that he had taught that See also:reason and the Church are each a " See also:fountain of divine authority which apart from See also:Holy Scripture may and does savingly enlighten men "; that " errors may have existed in the See also:original See also:text of the Holy Scripture "; that " many of the Old Testament predictions have been reversed by See also:history
and that " the See also:great See also:body of Messianic prediction has not and can-not be fulfilled "; that " See also:Moses is not the author of the See also:Pentateuch," and that " See also:Isaiah is not the author of See also:half of the See also:book which bears his name "; that " the processes of redemption extend to the See also:world to come "—he had considered it a See also:fault of See also:Protestant theology that it limits redemption to this world—and that" sanctification is not See also:complete at See also:death." The See also:general See also:assembly, to which the See also:case was appealed, suspended Dr Briggs
in 1893, being influenced, it would seem, in See also:part, by the manner and See also:tone of his expressions—by what his own colleagues in the Union Theological Seminary called the " dogmatic and irritating " nature of his inaugural address. He was ordained a See also:priest of the Protestant Episcopal Church in 1899. His scholarship procured for him the honorary degree of D.D. from See also:Edinburgh (1884) and from See also:Glasgow (19o1), and that of Litt: D, from See also:- OXFORD
