Ehrhard Johann (es) Brumhard (* 1692 in Coburg ; † July 10, 1732 in Jena ) was a German Protestant theologian and Pietist . He came from Franconia and was one of the three sons of the Coburg administrator Johann Benedikt Brumhardt. During his studies he had u. a. Contact August Hermann Francke . It was therefore inevitable that Ehrhard Johann also approached Halle Pietism. He stayed in Pölzig for a long time .

On this occasion, Das Various Judgment was published by Ritter Verlag. He also worked as a pastor in Wenigenjena near Jena. Jena students attended his sermons quite often. After his early death at the age of 40, his brother Johann Sebastian Brumhard successfully continued his work in Jena's student circles.
