Extract

The subject of this article claims attention for two special reasons. Firstly, and without any doubt, Grabe was one of the greatest atristic scholars of his age and lent lustre to the scholarly tradition at Oxford where his later years were spent. Secondly, his phenomenal patristic scholarship was inspired by a religious motive, which derived from his attachment to Lutheran Syncretism, a movement begun by the Helmstedt theologian Georg Calixtus (1586-1656). The problem of Grabe's neglect by historians is compounded by the confusion created by a contemporary account of the vital episode which brought him from Germany to Oxford and from Lutheranism to the Church of England. This article will therefore, draw together the scattered information which exists on Grabe's career and thereby remedy the neglect of historians, and dispel some of the confusion surrounding him.

63 Reliquiae Hernianae, 624f.; 623f.: ‘In short, I could never understand otherwise, but that Dr Grabe was very unsettled, and was setting up a religion of his own framing.’ Secretan's estimation is entirely positive: The Pious Robert Nelson, 345.

64 Abbey and Overton, The English Church in the Eighteenth Century, 67 is certainly mistaken. The ‘Greek Church’ rather refers to Stephen's domestic oratory. In 1703 Grabe was made a ‘Correspondent for the King of Prussia's Dominions’ by the SPCK: McClure, E., A Chapter in English Church History: being the Minutes of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge for the Years 1698–1704, London 1888, 221.Google Scholar We do not hear of Grabe's activities on behalf of the SPCK, but in 1700 August Hermann Francke, the leader of the Halle Pietists, became a more active corresponding member: ibid. 318. Once again it was Jablonski who encouraged the foundation of charities after the English pattern.

65 Grabe contributed to other works, e.g. Novum Testamentum, ed. J. Gregory, Oxford 1703, completed by H. Aldrich with Grabe's assistance; Daubuz, C., Pro testimonio Flavii Josephi de Jesu Christ, London 1706. Others made use of Grabe's MS, e.g. G.
