D. D Broadus John Albert, an American clergyman, born in Culpeper co., Va., Jan. 24, 1827. He was educated at the university of Virginia, and from 1851 to 1853 was assistant professor of ancient languages there. He then became pastor of the Baptist church in Charlottesville, and in 1859 professor of New Testament interpretation and homiletics in the Southern Baptist theological seminary at Greenville, S. C, where he still is (1873). As a Greek scholar and New Testament critic Dr. Broadus stands at the head of the Baptists of the south; but his only publication in this department as yet is an elaborate review (in the "Religious Herald," 1866 and 1868) of the American Bible Union's revised version of the New Testament. In 1870 he published a work on " The Preparation and Delivery of Sermons," which has been adopted as a text book in several theological seminaries. His other publications consist of sermons and review articles, and a series of papers ("Recollections of Travel") in the "Religious Herald," 1872-'3, describing a tour in Europe, Egypt, and Palestine.
