Peter Zorn (also Petrus Zorn ; born May 22, 1682 in Hamburg , † January 23, 1746 in Berlin ) was a German Lutheran theologian, historian, Graecist and Hebrew. He also used the pseudonym Theophilus Amelii.

Zorn studied in Leipzig and Wittenberg. In the winter semester of 1705/06 he enrolled at the University of Rostock as a graduate, where he passed an exam and a disputation at the theological faculty. He gave lectures on Greek language and history in Giessen and Kiel. In 1715 he became rector at the grammar school in Plön. From 1720 he was a private scholar in Hamburg. In 1725 he became a professor of history and eloquence in Stettin. From 1739 he was rector at the grammar school in Thorn and there city librarian. Most recently he lived as a private scholar in Berlin.

Zorn was regarded as a versatile educated scholar who dealt in numerous books with church history, the history of antiquity and theology, but also, for example, with Jewish history and numismatics. He was considered contentious.
