Life

The son of the citizen of the same name and councilor in Zeitz († June 29, 1595 in Zeitz) and his wife Ursula (born June 7, 1552 in the Propsteimühle near Zeitz; † September 19, 1613 in Zeitz), daughter of the miller Bastian from Eger Neidhart and Katharina Zeißler from Zeitz, had attended the city school in his hometown and received lessons from private teachers. In 1607 he moved to the University of Leipzig , for which he received a council scholarship from the city of Zeitz for three years. He completed his first studies with Bruno Beccerus (1582–1609), acquired his baccalaureate in 1608 , received a master's degree in philosophy in January 1610 , received an electoral scholarship and began studying theology.

He also attended the lectures of Burchard Harbart (1546–1614) and Johann Mülmann (1573–1613). He became a teacher of other students himself and in 1611 took a position as a teacher of the Tertius class at the Leipzig Nicolaischule . He later rose to the position of vice rector of the educational establishment, was baccalaureate in theology in 1613, held lectures at the philosophical faculty, completed his habilitation and was accepted there as an assessor at the philosophical faculty.

In 1621 he exchanged his educational activity with a theological one, became the lowest deacon at the Leipzig Nikolaikirche and rose in the course of time to 1629 to archdeacon . In 1633 he took over the professorship of the Hebrew language at the theological faculty, acquired a licentiate in theology in 1634 , rose to the fourth theological professorship in 1637 and received a doctorate in theology.

Bauer, who had experienced four sieges of Leipzig, died of catarrh in Zeitz on March 10, 1590 and was buried on November 18 in the Paulinerkirche in Leipzig , where an epitaph was erected for him and his second wife.

Bauer was married twice.

In 1623 he married Rebecca († 1631), the daughter of the lawyer Franz Romanus (1550-1636). From this marriage three sons were born, but they died young again.
