William John Dumbrell (1926 – 1 October 2016) was an Australian biblical scholar.
Dumbrell was converted in 1951, and studied at Moore Theological College before being ordained as priest in the Anglican church in February 1957.[1] He undertook further studies at the University of Sydney (M.A., 1958), the University of London (B.D. and M.Th.) and Harvard University (Th.D., 1969).[1] Dumbrell had served on the faculty of Regent College, Macquarie University, Moore Theological College, the University of Sydney, Trinity Theological College, Singapore and Emmaus Bible College.[2]
In 2010, a Festschrift was published in his honour, An Everlasting Covenant: Biblical and Theological Essays in Honour of William J. Dumbrell (ISBN 9780980667615), which included contributions from Bruce Waltke and Allan Harman. He died in Sydney on 1 October 2016.[3] Michael Jensen suggests that, along with that of Donald Robinson and Graeme Goldsworthy, Dumbrell's work "has been crucial for shaping how Sydney Anglicans think about and preach from the Bible."[4]
