Hendrik Issendorp

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Hendrik Issendorp [1]

belonged to the Evangelical Lutherans of Holland. He was called in 1723 to the charge of a Lutheran church at Purmerend. In 1737 bodily infirmities rendered a colleague necessary. In 1743 he resigned his charge. Though obliged to desist from his ministerial work, he rendered himself eminently useful to his denomination by presenting to the Dutch a translation of some three or four hundred German hymns. See Glasius. Godgeleerde Nederland, 2, 196 sq.; also Gesch Medenis van het godsdienstig Gezang bij de Luiherschen in de Nederlanden door. (J. P.W.)
