Rebstock's epitaph in Blaubeuren monastery

Jeremias Rebstock (born October 2, 1602 in Jesingen , † August 28, 1660 in Blaubeuren ) was a German Protestant theologian .

Rebstock was the son of the future bailiff of Oppenau (there: 1616-1630), Jeremias Rebstock (1579-1630), and his wife Barbara Brunn (1580-1610). Rebstock was pastor in Neuweiler from 1627 . On October 25, 1627 he married the pastor's daughter Ursula geb. Kayerleber (* June 23, 1605 † July 27, 1630 shortly after 8 a.m.). The preserved wooden, painted epitaph in the Neuweiler Stephanuskirche from 1631 reminds of Rebstock's deceased first wife. Their marriage had remained childless. In 1635 Rebstock moved to Strümpfelbach . From 1651 or 1652 to 1660 he was Protestant abbot of the Blaubeuren monastery and as such a member of the Württemberg landscape . In 1636 he married the pastor's widow Catharina Bab, b. Sorg (1607-1678). Their son Augustin Rebstock (1640–1709) also became a clergyman .

Rebstock became known through his participation in the Württemberger summaries or thorough interpretation of the entire Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments (Stuttgart, 1659 and 1667), for which he edited the 1st book of Moses . The other parts of the work come from Johann Jakob Heinlin (1588–1660) and Johann Konrad Zeller (1603–1683). This at the instigation of Duke Eberhard III. The resulting practical, edifying interpretation of the Bible was based on the example of the Weimar (or Ernestine) Bible. It remained in ecclesiastical use for a long time and was edited several times until the 19th century.
