Richard C. H. Lenski


Richard C. H. Lenski (September 14, 1864 in Greifenberg, Brandenburg-Prussia (now Gryfice,Poland) – 1936) was a German-born American-naturalized Lutheran scholar, and author, who published a series of Lutheran New Testament commentaries (some of the volumes were published after his death). He was editor of Die Lutherische Kirchenzeitung for twenty years. His 12-volume series of commentaries on the New Testament contains a literal translation of the Greek texts and commentary which was advertised as being from a traditional Lutheran perspective.

He was the father of the author Lois Lenski, grandfather of the sociologist Gerhard Lenski, and great-grandfather of the evolutionary biologist Richard Lenski.

Lenski's Lutheran views aside, Lenski was not Reformed and shows little sympathy for Reformed theology in his commentaries.
