Philip Melancthon - David J Deane

Excerpt from Philip Melancthon: The Wittemberg Professor and Theologian of the Reformation
The intimate friend and companion of Martin Luther for a period of nearly twenty - eight years is, for that fact alone, worthy of a place in the biographical literature of the present day; and when, in addition, that friend is found to be a man of most eminent learning, of great worth and exalted piety, and one who exerted an in uence upon the great Protestant Reformation second only to Luther himself, no apology is needed for placing a record of his life and times before the Christian public of the present day.
