EBER, PAUL (1511-1569) ,
German
  theologian, was born at Kitzingen in Franconia, and was educated at
Nuremberg
  and Wittenberg, where he became the close friend of Philip
Melanchthon
 . In 1541 he was appointed
professor
  of Latin
grammar
  at Wittenberg, and in 1557
professor
  of the Old Testament. His range of learning was wide, and he published a handbook of Jewish history, a historical calendar intended to supersede the Roman Saints' Calendar, and a revision of the Latin Old Testament. In the theological conflict of the time he played a large
part
 , doing what he could to mediate between the extremists. From 1559 to the close of his
life
  he was
superintendent
 -general of the electorate of
Saxony
 . He attained some fame as a hymn-writer, his best-known
composition
  being " Wenn wir in hichsten Nothen sein." He died_ at Wittenberg on the loth of December 1569.
