Born in Chomutov (then Komotau), Bohemia, as ''Matthäus Goldhahn'', (he latinized his name ''Aurogallus'' in the fashion of renaissance humanists) Aurogallus served as professor of Hebrew at the University of Wittenberg and was a colleague of Philip Melanchthon and Martin Luther. He assisted Luther in the revision of the reformer's translation of the Old Testament and made valuable contributions to the academic study of Hebrew.
