He was born in Freistadt, Silesia. A well known student of Melanchthon,[1][3] he studied in Reval (Tallinn) around 1550. He was preacher in Lubań, Silesia, and after 1586 priest in Breslau.[2]
His Arithmetica Historica ("Historical Arithmetic", 1593) was conceived to prepare for the Last Judgment by combining Biblical teaching and arithmetical knowledge.[1]
