Bernhard Stade

Bernhard Stade (May 11, 1848 – December 6, 1906) was a German Protestant theologian, born at Arnstadt, in Thuringia.

He studied at Leipzig and Berlin, and in course of time became (1875) professor ordinarius at Giessen. Once a member of Franz Delitzsch's class, he became a convinced adherent of the newest critical school.

In 1881 he founded the "Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft", which he continued to edit; and his critical history of Israel ("Geschichte des Volks Israel", 2 vols, 1887–1888; vol. ii in conjunction with Oscar Holtzmann) made him very widely known.

With Carl Siegfried ["History and Guide to Judaic Dictionaries and Concordances", Shimeon Brisman, 2000] he revised and edited the Hebrew lexicon, "Hebräisches Wörterbuch zum Allen Testament" (1892-1893). Stade's other works included:
*"Über die alttestamentlichen Vorstellungen vom Zustand nach dem Tode" (1877)
*"Lehrbuch der hebräischen Grammatik" (vol. i, 1879)
*"Ausgewählte akademische Reden und Abhandlungen" (1899)
*"Biblische Theologie des Alten Testaments" (1905, etc.)
