Henry St. John Thackeray

Henry St. John Thackeray (1869–30 June 1930) was a British biblical scholar at King's College, Cambridge, an expert on Koine Greek, Josephus and the Septuagint. Henry Thackeray was a scholar of King's College, University of Cambridge, who is perhaps best remembered for his work on Josephus. His untimely death at the age of sixty-one in 1930 abruptly ended his work as editor and translator of Josephus's works for the Loeb Classical Library, after producing the first five books and part of the sixth of the Antiquities.[1] The work was then carried on the American scholar, Ralph Marcus.

The Relation of St. Paul to Contemporary Jewish Thought 1900
The Letter of Aristeas 1904
Josephus: The Man and the Historian 1929
An Introduction to the Old Testament in Greek with Henry Barclay Swete 1900
