Brown “was entirely self-taught: by great perseverance he acquired a considerable knowledge of Latin and Greek; with Hebrew he became critically conversant. He could also read and translate the French, Italian, German, Arabic, Persian, Syriac, and Ethiopic; but all these were subordinate to his favorite study of divinity, in which he became eminently skilled, as well as in history, both ecclesiastical and civil.
