Wilhelm Momma was a theologian who was born in Hamburg and worked most of his life (1642-1677) in Germany. He studied in Leiden and was ultimately made preacher in Middelburg. Due to doctrinal disputes he was forced out in early 1677; he then moved on to Delft, where he died in September of that year.
