Life

After attending various universities, he obtained the degree of master's degree from the University of Wittenberg . After giving a few lectures, he was accepted as an adjunct in the philosophy faculty. In 1609 he went to Lüdingworth as a pastor and was appointed from there on January 29, 1615 as the main pastor of St. Nicholas' Church in Hamburg.

In this capacity he took part in the convention of Lutheran clergy in Lübeck, Hamburg and Lüneburg (the so-called Ministry Tripolitanum ) in Mölln in 1633 to advise against the spreading enthusiasts . He stood up against Hans Engelbrecht , who intended to introduce the enthusiastic ideas in Hamburg. From September 12, 1633 he became a senior in the ministry of the clergy , but had to resign from work for health reasons in 1646 and died four years later. As a theologian, he spoke out against the exorcism at baptism and got into an argument about it with a colleague.
