Oxford, Jablonski entered upon his career as a preacher at See also:Magdeburg in 1683, and then from 1686 to 1691 he was the See also:head of the Moravian See also:college at See also:Lissa, a position which had been filled by his grandfather. Still retaining his connexion with the Moravians, he was appointed See also:court preacher at See also:Konigsberg in 1691 by the elector of See also:Brandenburg, See also:Frederick III., and here, entering upon a career of See also:great activity, he soon became a See also:person of See also:influence in court circles. In 1693 he was transferred to See also:Berlin as court preacher, and in 1699 he was consecrated a bishop of the Moravian Church. At Berlin Jablonski worked hard to bring about a See also:union between the followers of See also:Luther and those of See also:Calvin; the courts of Berlin, See also:Hanover, See also:Brunswick and See also:Gotha were interested in his See also:- SCHEME (Lat. schema, Gr. oxfjya, figure, form, from the root axe, seen in exeiv, to have, hold, to be of such shape, form, &c.)
scheme, and his See also:principal helper was the philosopher See also:Leibnitz. His See also:idea appears to have been to See also:form a See also:general union between the German, the See also:English and the Swiss Protestants, and thus to establish una eademque sancta catholica et aposto'See also:ica eademque evangelica et reformats See also:ecclesia. For some years negotiations were carried on with a view to attaining this end, but eventually it was found impossible to surmount the many difficulties in the way; Jablonski and Leibnitz, however, did not cease to believe in the possibility of accomplishing their purpose. Jablonski's next See also:plan was to reform the Church of See also:Prussia by introducing into it the episcopate, and also the See also:liturgy of the English Church, but here again he was unsuccessful. As a See also:scholar Jablonski brought out a See also:Hebrew.edition of the Old Testament, and translated See also:Bentley's A Confutation of See also:Atheism into Latin (1696). He had some See also:share in See also:founding the Berlin See also:Academy of Sciences, of which he was See also:president in 1733, and he received a degree from the university of Oxford. He died on the 25th of May 1741.
Jablonski's son, See also:Paul Ernst Jablonski (1693-1757), was See also:professor of See also:theology and See also:philosophy at the university of Frankforton-the-Oder.
See also:Editions of the letters which passed between Jablonski and Leibnitz, relative to the peoposed union, were published at See also:Leipzig in 1747 and at Dorpat ir. 1899.
