Campeius Vitringa

Campeius Vitringa

Campeius Vitringa [Also Campegius or Kempe Vitringa, styled the Elder; the younger Campeius Vitringa (1693-1723) was his fourth son.] (born at Leeuwarden, May 161659; died at Franeker, March 311722) was a Dutch Protestant theologian and Hebraist. He was a follower of Johannes Cocceius.

He was educated at the universities of Franeker and Leyden, and became professor of Oriental languages at the former in 1681. His two chief works are his dissertation on the synagogue, "De Synagoga Vetere Libri Tres" (Franeker, 1685; 2d ed. 1696); and his "Commentary on Isaiah" (Leeuwarden, 1714-20), which was frequently republished in the eighteenth century. The latter was up to the time of Gesenius the most considerable contribution to the exegesis of Isaiah. There is also his "Sacrarum Observationum Libri Sex" (Franeker, 1683-1708).
