S. R. Driver (1846-1914) was Fellow of New College until his appointment as Regius Professor of Hebrew and Canon of Christ Church in 1893. A founding Fellow of the British Academy, Driver is known for his various Biblical commentaries and his substantial work in Hebrew and is generally considered the greatest British Old Testament scholar of his time.
The Reverend Professor T. K. Cheyne (1841-1915) served as Fellow at Balliol College, Oxford, from 1868-82 and as Oriel Professor of Interpretation of Scripture at the University of Oxford from 1885-1908.
He was elected to the Fellowship of the British Academy in 1904. His other publications include 'Jewish Religious Life After the Exile', 1898; 'The Origin and Religious Contents of the Psalter', 1891; 'Traditions and Beliefs of Ancient Israel', 1907; and he co-edited the 'Encyclopaedia Biblica', (4 volumes) 1899-1903.
William Sanday (1843-1920) was named Dean Ireland's Professor of Exegesis at Oxford in 1884. By 1895 he was Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity and became Chair of the Synoptics Seminar. The author of many books, including the seminal commentary on Romans, Sanday was truly one of the giants of twentieth century British biblical scholarship.
