JoiiANN (iERHARD was boni in Wechtc, Prussia, Jime 12, 173G. Having become a student at the Academy of Lingen, 1753-55, he distinguished himself by an eager thirst for knowledge, aiid by great earnestness of relig- ious activity. For preaching without license he was several times arrested. After eleven years' suspension he was made rector of the Gymnasium in Duisliurg in 1766, and soon after married, and settled down earnestly to his work of restoring the fallen fortunes of the gym- nasium. His religious tendencies always inclined him to fa\ or pietism, and to urge the necessity of deep Chris- tian experience. He therefore sympathized fully with CoUenbusch (q. v.) and Oetinger (q. v.). He was again suspended as a " mystic" and disturber, but was soon re- stored by the higher Church authorities at Berlin. He died July 10, 1771. His autobiography, extending to 1766, and continued by his son, Avas published in the journal Wahrheit z. Gottselirjkeit (vol. ii, 5, 6, 1830). He also pulilislicd Predifitcihm. d. Geschmack der drei ersten Jahrli Ill/ill lit { Frankfort, 1772). His other writings are of httlc iniporiaiur.

FuiEDRicii Arnold, his half-brother, bom Jan. 11, 1747, succeeded Johann as rector of Duisburg, and mar- ried his widow. Following in the footsteps of his broth- er, he shared his religious opinions and feelings, and AVTote several pamphlets in exposition f)f the views of the so-called " mystical" school of Stilling and Lavater. He also wrote against Semler and other rationalists, who fared liailly under liis fiery attacks. See his U. die ver- dunkelnde A iflddnmej (Duisb. 1789) : — Brief e Uber Pro- jjheten (Duisb. 1791), etc. He died in 1795.

JoiiAXN Heinrich, another brother, -was bom Sept. 19, 1750. After helping his parents until he was sixteen years old, he began his studies, was from 1776 to 1779 rector at Emmerich, and, having been appointed pastor of a small congregation near Altona, remained there during the last thirty-five years of his life. The loneli- ness of his life in the soUtude of his remote parish influ- enced his character, yet he is the most genial of the three brothers, as is seen in his Christliche Schriften (Mmister, 1816-19, 2 vols.). He died July 17, 1814.— Herzog, Real-Encyklop. ; Pierer, Universal-Lexikon, s.v. (J. N. P.)
