Mr. (Rev. Dr. Prof.) Bromiley, that tweedy" and very "High-End" academic and scholar of the "Highest" caliber of the "first-order magnitude. A "tall and very High-ended mind" up in the academic stratosphere. By comparison, we are a rather "low-ended" and "low-minded" breed. Mr. Bromiley was one of our better Churchmen. He's in the category of Mr. (Rev. Dr. Prof.) Philip Edgcumbe Hughes. We refer not to Churchmanship when talking about "High or Low," but to doctrine, worship, piety and first-rate Anglican scholarship. An old school and dependable Anglican too. This brief Wiki-bio, while brief, entirely fails to mention Mr. Bromiley's infamous and scholarly translation of Kittel's 10-volume New Testament Dictionary, a veritable mine for Greek studies. But, we've corrected that serious oversight here. It also failed to mention Mr. Bromiley's "Thomas Cranmer," a handy and credible little work.
Here's the brief Wiki-bio.
