Bernhard Pick

Bernhard Pick (Kempen 19 December 1842 – 1917) was a German-American Lutheran pastor and scholar.

He studied at Union Theological Seminary in New York City and after became a pastor. As a scholar he contributed many articles to the Schaff-Herzog ''Encyclopaedia of Religious Knowledge'' and McClintock and James Strong's ''Cyclopaedia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature''. He also provided the index to Johann Peter Lange's ''Commentary on the Old Testament'' 1882 and an "Index to the Ante-Nicene Fathers" (1887). Pick's interest in hymnology led to ''Luther as a Hymnist'' Philadelphia, 1875 and an edition of Luther's "Ein feste Burg" in 19 Languages 1880; enlarged in 21 languages, Chicago, 1883.
