Interesting sammelband containing five works by Heinrich Opitz on Hebrew, particularly in the context of biblical studies and the broader field of Semitic linguistic.

Heinrich Opitz began his studies at the University of Wittenberg in 1662 and later transferred to the University of Jena, where he earned his Magister degree in 1665. Opitz then focused on oriental languages during stints in Leipzig and Hamburg before traveling to Kiel in 1667 to work as a private lecturer. He embarked on a journey through the Netherlands and England three years later to deepen his understanding of oriental languages visiting libraries in Leiden, Utrecht, and London.

Opitz later went to Oxford to study oriental manuscripts before settling in Jena, where he worked with the university's philosophical faculty. In 1675, he became a professor of Greek language in Kiel, adding a professorship in oriental languages in 1679. His career progressed, culminating in his promotion to Doctor and professor of theology in 1689, followed by his appointment as an Oberkonsistorialrat in 1704.
