Valentin Schindler (14 February 1543 – 11 June 1604[1]) was a Lutheran Hebraist and professor of the University of Wittenberg, where he was an important teacher of the Hebrew language.[2] He moved by 1594 to Helmstedt.[3]
He is known for his dictionary "Lexicon Pentaglotton: Hebraicum, Chaldicum, Syriacum, Talmudico-Rabbinicum, et Arabicum", in which the vocabulary of Hebrew and of four other Semitic languages is translated to Latin.[4] It was published posthumously in 1612, one year before the 1613 Arabic-Latin lexicon of Franciscus Raphelengius. An abridgement was published in 1637 by William Alabaster.
