Talk:Christian David Ginsburg

Born

There's some conflict on birth date. This current article reads the year 1831. The old Messianic Judaism wiki [1] reads 1821. The Companion to the Revised Old Testament (Chambers, 1885) reads "Born in Poland about 1825".

Apostacy

Funny, the article says nothing whatever about his conversion to Christianity. Please supplement.

There is quite a lot of good information on this here, including quotes, references and links. Much of it could be incorporated into the article by whoever is interested in doing so. Dovi 11:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

It's in the second line. I added it yesterday, after seeing S's exposition. —Dfass 20:06, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Somehow I had always assumed that his conversion wasn't about religion at all, but just a way to advance his career in a professional/academic climate that was very unwelcoming to Jews and thus hindered their advancement. Well, if he actually became a missionary, then it looks like my assumption was totally wrong. Toddcs (talk) 20:24, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Name

Presumably he took the name "Christian" on conversion. Has anyone seen sources to that effect? Oncenawhile (talk) 19:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
