Volrath Vogt (14 February 1817 – 19 July 1889) was a Danish-born, Norwegian theologian, educator and author. Today he is most known for his biblical stories for schoolchildren.
Vogt was born in the village of Reerslev near Roskilde, Denmark. He was the son of Johan Nilsen Vogt (1783–1859) and Henriette Elisabeth Lorenzina Juhl (1790–1846). He grew up at Tune in Oslo, Norway where his father was a Church of Norway vicar and later provost. He earned his cand.theol. in 1838.

In 1863 he conducted an extended research trip to Syria and Palestine, where he gathered impressions and historical data. He published a number of popular works of the Gospels, a textbook in Church history and various textbooks on Bible history. His textbook Bibelhistorie med Lidt af Kirkens Historie from 1858 became widely used in schools, and had been printed in more than a million copies at the time of his death.
