Priest, hebraist, and Biblical scholar; b. at Bordeaux, 1 April, 1798; d. at
Issy, near Paris, 25 Feb., 1879. Having completed a course of serious study at
Bordeaux, he went to the seminary of Saint-Sulpice at Paris, the courses of
which he followed simultaneously with those of Oriental languages at the
Sorbonne (State Faculty of Theology). After his ordination to priesthood, in
1822, he began to teach Hebrew at the seminary of Saint-Sulpice. In 1825 he was
made assistant to the Abbé Chaunac de Lanzac, professor of Hebrew at the
Sorbonne, and succeeded him as lecturer in 1831. He was professor of Sacred
Scripture in 1836, became dean of the faculty in 1841, and retired in 1851. His
numerous works are out of date, but it should be remembered that he did much for
the study of Holy Scripture, and, furthermore, in a very conservative way.

The following are his chief publications.— On Oriental languages: "Lexicon
manuale hebraicum et chaldaicum", Paris, 1830 (correction of the "Lexicon" of
Gesenius); "Principes de grammaire hébraïque et chaldaïque", Paris, 1832 and
1843; "Manuel de l'hébraïsant", Paris, 1850; "Principes de grammaire arabe",
Paris, 1861. On Holy Scripture: "Introduction historique et critique aux livres
de l'Ancien et du Nouveau Testament", Paris, 1836, several times re-edited; he
summarized it in his "Abrégé d'introduction" etc., Paris, 1846, which also went
through several editions; "Les Livres saints vengés, ou la vérité historique et
divine de l'Ancien et du Nouveau Testament", Paris, 1845. The portion of his
work which endures consists of his translations of the Bible: "La sainte Bible
en latin et en français", Paris, 1834; "Torah Mosché, le Pentateuque", Hebrew
text with translation and annotations; "La sainte Bible selon la Vulgate",
Paris, 1871-1873, an exact but too literal version; the translation of the New
Testament, also frequently published separately, was specially examined and
approved at Rome. Glaire's translation was inserted in the "Bible polyglotte" of
Vigouroux, Paris, 1889-1890. With Viscount Walsh, Glaire edited the
"Encyclopédie catholique" (Paris, 1854—), to which he contributed a number of
articles.
