For general account of Capellus, see G.L.Bauer, in his Prolegomena, as above, vol.ii, pp.

8-14.

His Arcanum Premetationis Revelatum was brought out at Leyden in 1624; his Critica Sacra ten years later.

See on Capellus and Swiss theologues, Wolfius, Bibliotheca Nebr., tome ii, p.27.For the struggle, see Schnedermann, Die Controverse des Ludovicus Capellus mit den Buxtorfen, Leipsic, 1879, cited in article Hebrew, in Encyclopaedia Britannica.

For Wasmuth, see his Vindiciae Sanctae Hebraicae Scripturae, Rostock, 1664.
For Reuchlin, see the dedicatory preface to his Rudimenta Hebraica, Pforzheim, 1506, folio, in which he speaks of the "in divina scriptura dicendi genus, quale os Dei locatum est." The statement in the Margarita Philosophica as to Hebrew is doubtless based on Reuchlin's Rudimenta Hebraica, which it quotes, and which first appeared in 1506.
