### Vehe-Glirius, Matthias (1545 ?-1590)
From being a German Protestant of Pfalz he became a radical anti-Trinitarian thinker. He attended Hebraistic studies in Cologne and began to hold Jewish views according to which Jesus was a Messiah but not a God therefore Christians should regard most of the law in the Old Testament as being compulsory for themselves. Later he travelled to Transylvania where he worked as an instructor at the school of Kolozsvár. His German-language main work the Knowledge of God (Mattanjah, 1578) was only reviled in the recent past. He played a significant role in laying down the ideal foundation of the Transylvanian Sabbathians. At the end of his life he returned to Western Europe and died in prison. ÁP-SzJú
