Patrick D. Miller, the Seminary’s Charles T. Haley Professor of Old
Testament Theology, has had a distinguished career spanning three decades as both a
scholar and a pastor. In 1998, he served as president of the Society of Biblical
Literature, for which he was also a former secretary. He is also the editor of Theology Today and coeditor of the Interpretation Commentary series and the Westminster Bible Companion series. Before coming to Princeton, he was a member of the Bible Department at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia, where he also served as dean of the faculty from 1979 to 1983. What drew Dr. Miller to Princeton was “the quality of the theological education, the excellence of the faculty, the commitment of the Seminary to the church, and the international diversity of the school, including the many ethnic groups that participate in its life.” He believes that Princeton Seminary offers its students a superior education for the practice of ministry, and doctoral-level work of the first rank.
