David Lipach (also: David Lippach, Lipachius; * August 8, 1580 in Bibra ; † December 18, 1653 in Neustadt an der Orla ) was a German Protestant theologian.

Life

Lipach can first be traced back to 1610 as a German Lutheran preacher in the old town of Prague , where he worked for thirteen years. It may also have been his place of study. From 1619 he was archdeacon in the church of St. Salvator . As such, he assisted Jan Jessenius , Georg Haunschild and Leander Rüppel in their last hours, who were imprisoned in 1621 and executed by the Prague Blood Court after the Czech rebellion of 1618 was put down on June 21, 1621. In 1622 he was given leave of absence with three others and expelled from Bohemia . From 1622 he was a Protestant field and court preacher in Weimar. On May 16, 1623 he enrolled as a master at the University of Wittenberg. From 1627 he became a real preacher of honor . In the winter semester of 1631 he matriculated at the University of Leipzig . In 1636 he received his resignation from Wilhelm (Sachsen-Weimar) .

In 1628 Lipach gave a funeral sermon for Hans Melchior Marschall , who was shot in the Thirty Years' War , and which was published by Tobias Steinmann . His grave slab was found in 2007 during renovation work in the Jakobskirche (Weimar) . In 1640 he went to Neustadt in Sachsen Weimar, from where he can be traced back to the inauguration of the Schlosskirche Friedenstein near Gotha in 1646.

Lipach was married to Katharina Haberstroh (born November 27, 1583 in Walda; † June 15, 1637 in Weimar). From that marriage comes the son David Lippach (born December 24, 1620 in Breslau, August 8, 1643 Mag.phil University of Jena, March 7, 1656 deacon in Jena, from 1678 archdeacon in Weimar at the time of Duke Johann Ernst I (Saxony -Weimar) and Johann Ernst II.
