Word of the Day: Darby

John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) is often cited as the "creator" of Rapture theology, while others claim he only popularized the ideology. Born in Westminster, London, he was ordained as an Anglican clergyman in Ireland.

Darby translated the bible into German, French, and Dutch editions, and eventually had a reputation as an interpreter of bible prophecy. Darby is noted by some as the father of dispensationalism.
