Edwin Hatch

Edwin Hatch (1835-1889) was an English theologian born on September 4, 1835 in Derby, England. He is best known as the author of the paper "Influence of Greek Ideas and Usages Upon the Christian Church", which he presented during the 1888 Hibbert Lectures.

Hatch attended King Edward's School, Birmingham, where he studied under James Prince Lee, who would later become the Bishop of Manchester; it was during this period of his life that he was first noted for his strong mental independence and extreme study habits. He graduated from Pembroke College at Oxford University in 1857, after undergraduate studies at Cambridge University. In 1858, Hatch won the Ellerton prize. In 1859, he was ordained as an Anglican priest, and travelled to Toronto, Canada, where he was professor of classics at Trinity College until 1862. Between then and his return to Oxford in 1867, he served as rector of the High School of Quebec and professor of Classics at Morrin College, both in Quebec City. He served as vice-principle of Saint Mary Hall until 1885. In 1884 he was appointed university reader in ecclesiastical history.

Hatch was a Bampton lecturer in 1880. He served as a Grinfield lecturer from 1880 to 1884, during which time he presented his concordance on the Septuagint.

Hatch died on November 10, 1889 in Oxford.
