Theodorus van Schelluynen

Theodorus van Schelluynen (1692-1776) was a Dutch theologian and poet, known for his work in the Netherlands. Born in The Hague and later living in Amsterdam, he is perhaps most famous for his role in the introduction of new metrical psalms for the Reformed Church. His "Aanspraak aan de Hervormde Nederduitsche Gemeente te Amsterdam" (Address to the Reformed Dutch Congregation in Amsterdam) speaks volumes about his dedication to the church and his contributions to religious poetry.
