Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NUM-ORC
OEHLER, GUSTAV FRIEDRICH (1812-1872) , German theologian, was born on the loth of June 1812 at Ebingen, Wurttemberg, and was educated privately and at Tubingen where he was much influenced by J. C. F. Steudel, professor of Old Testament Theology. In 1837, after a
term
  of Oriental study at Berlin, he went to Tubingen as Repetent, becoming in 1840 professor at the
seminary
  and pastor in Schonthal. In 1845 he published his Prolegomena zur Theologie des Allen Testaments, accepted an invitation to Breslau and received the degree of
doctor
  from
Bonn
 . In 1852 he returned to Tubingen as director of the
seminary
  and professor of Old Testament Theology at the university. He declined a
call
  to Erlangen as successor to Franz Delitzsch (1867), and died at Tubingen on the 19th of February 1872. Oehler admitted the composite authorship of the Pentateuch and the Book of Isaiah, and did much to counter-act the antipathy against the Old Testament that had been fostered by Schleiermacher. In
church
  polity he was Lutheran rather than Reformed. Besides his Old Testament Theology (Eng. trans., 2 vols., Edinburgh, 18741875), his works were Gesammelte Seminarreden (1872) and Lehrbuch Symbolik (1876), both published posthumously, and about
forty
  articles for the first edition of
Herzog
 's Realencyklopddie which were largely retained by Delitzsch and von
Orelli
  in the second.
