Ernst Wilhelm Hengstenberg
Ernst Wilhelm Hengstenberg (1802–1869) was a prominent German Lutheran theologian and scholar, best known for his conservative defense of traditional Christian doctrine. He taught Old Testament studies at the University of Berlin and was a leading voice against the liberal theology of his time.
