Harold Henry Rowley (24 March 1890 – 4 October 1969) was an English Old Testament scholar from the Baptist tradition.
The family Baptist church was Melbourne Hall, Leicester, previously led by F. B. Meyer and William F. Fullerton.
These beginnings profoundly affected and formed Rowley's churchmanship, theology and missional interests.
His academic career started with a position in 1935 as Professor of Hebrew and Semitic Languages at University College, Bangor, serving from 1935 to 1945.
He saw out his formal academic career with the chair of Semitic languages at Manchester University, eventually retiring in 1956.
