Johannes Habermann a. k. a. Johannes Avenarius (1516-1590), German Lutheran theologian. His contemporaries praised him as an Old Testament exegete, not least for this work, which was most influential in its day, but posterity has focused on his sermons and prayer books, which were translated into Latin, English and French, and which, to some extent, are still in use.
