order: B.A., 1672; M.A., 1675; B.D., 1682; and D.D., 1686. His See also:account of the famous See also:Arundel See also:marbles just given to the university appeared in 1676. In 1679 he was appointed to the rectory of St See also:Clement's, Oxford, and See also:Hebrew lecturer at Christ Church, where he continued until See also:February 1686, holding for the last three years the rectory of Bladon with See also:Woodstock. In 1686 he exchanged for the See also:benefice of Saham in See also:Norfolk. The sympathies of Prideaux inclined to See also:Low Churchism in See also:religion and to Whiggism in politics, and he took an active See also:part in the controversies of the See also:day, See also:publishing the following See also:pamphlets: " The Validity of the Orders of the Church of See also:England " (1688), " See also:Letter to a Friend on the See also:Present See also:Convocation " (169o), " The See also:Case of Clandestine Marriages stated " (1691). Prideaux was promoted to the archdeaconry of See also:Suffolk in See also:December 1688, and to the deanery of See also:Norwich (he had See also:long been one of the canons) in See also:June 1702. In 1694 he was obliged, through See also:ill See also:health, to resign the rectory of Saham, and after having held the vicarage of Trowse for fourteen years (1696-171o) he found himself incapacitated from further parochial See also:duty.

Many of the See also:dean's writings were of considerable value. His See also:Life of See also:Mahomet (1697) was really a polemical See also:tract against the deists and has now no See also:biographical value. Both it and his Directions to Churchwardens (1701) passed through several See also:editions. Even greater success attended The Old and New Testament connected in the See also:History of the See also:Jews (1716), a See also:work which not only displayed but stimulated See also:research.
