Johannes Ens

Johannes Ens (also: Hoseas Stuchtenius, Daniel van der Heijde ; born May 9, 1682 in Kwadijk ; † January 6, 1732 in Utrecht ) was a Dutch Reformed theologian.

Life

The son of pastor Cornelius Ens († June 20, 1717) was the brother of the professor at the University of Harderwijk Petrus Ens . After initial training with his father, he first studied at the University of Utrecht , where he defended the disputation de libro vitae under Henricus Pontanus . In 1703 he moved to the University of Leiden , where he continued his theological training under Jacobus Perizonius , Johannes a Marck (1656–1731), Salomon van Til (1643–1713) and Franciscus Fabricius (1663–1738). In 1706 he studied in Utrecht, became a candidate for the ecclesiastical consistory and in March 1707 pastor in Beets (Beersen) in North Holland. On November 25, 1707 he received his doctorate in Leiden with the Disputatio historico-theologica inauguralis de librorum Novi Testamenti canone as a doctor of theology.

In 1719 he went to the academic high school in Lingen and took up the post of professor of theology and philosophy on May 11 with the speech de sanctorum liborum studio, atque ejusdem fatis . In addition, he was given an extraordinary pastorate in Lingen. On March 10, 1720, he was appointed pastor in Utrecht and on April 22, the office of extraordinary professor of theology at the Academy of the Utrecht University, which he took up on June 3, 1720 with the speech De persecutione Julianea .

On January 4, 1723 he became a full professor of theology and as such held the rectorate of the Alma Mater in 1727/28 .

Theologically he had established himself as a representative of the federal theology of Johannes Coccejus , he was said to have great skills in the Greek language and extensive knowledge of church history.

The traditions describe him as a very disorderly person who was not averse to culinary delights. This led to an increase in size and is said to have been the cause of his death.
