Antonius Perizonius was appointed (1655) to the chair of Hebrew languages in Hamm (Westfalen). From 1666 onwards, he read Hebrew and oriental languages at the Illustrious School of Deventer. Perizonius was a rather minor figure who authored no important original works. See: NNBW, vol. 5, col. 466; BLGNP, vol. 2, pp. 358–9; Touber, 2013, passim.

Perizonius wrote a rejoinder to the 'Theological-Political Treatise,' but the fact is that what was ready of Antonius Perizonius’s rejoinder never appeared in print, perhaps because of the negative response by Graevius. Nonetheless, references to the unpublished work by Antonius Perizonius frequently turn up in notes on the projected work made by Leibniz and remarks of his patron, Von Boineburg, who for a while fanatically kept track of any news reporting about (upcoming) refutations of Spinoza.
