ABBOTT, LYMAN (1835- )

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 27 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: A10-ADA
ABBOTT, LYMAN (1835- ) , American divine and author, was born at Roxbury, Massachusetts, on the 18th of December 1835, the son of Jacob Abbott. He graduated at the University of New
York
  in 1853, studied law, and was admitted to the bar in 1856; but soon abandoned the legal profession, and, after studying theology with his uncle, J. S. C. Abbott, was ordained a minister of the Congregational Church in 186o. He was pastor of a church in Terre Haute, Indiana, in 186o-1865, and of the New England Church in New
York
  City in 1865-1869. From 1865 to 1868 he was secretary of the American Union (Freedman's) Commission. In 1869 he resigned his pastorate to devote him-self to literature. He was an associate editor of Harper's Magazine, was editor of the Illustrated Christian Weekly, and was co-editor (1876-1881) of The Christian Union with
Henry
  Ward Beecher, whom he succeeded in 1888 as pastor of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn. From this pastorate he resigned ten years later. From 1881 he was editor-in-
chief
  of The Christian Union, renamed The Outlook in 1893; this periodical reflected his efforts toward social reform, and, in theology, a liberality, humanitarian and nearly unitarian. The latter characteristics marked his published works also.
His works include Jesus of Nazareth (1869) ; Illustrated Commentary on the New Testament (4 vols., 1875) ; A Study in Human Nature (1885); Life of Christ (1894); Evolution of Christianity (
Lowell
  Lectures, 1896) ; The Theology of an Evolutionist (1897) ; Christianity and Social Problems (1897) ; Life and Letters of Paul (1898) ;
