Henry Thackeray (1869 - 1930)

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. He 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. The work was then carried on the American scholar, Ralph Marcus.
