Matthias Faber, S.J., ( 1587 – 1653) was a German Jesuit priest, who gained fame as a religious writer and preacher.
Faber was born in Altomünster, in Bavaria. He received Holy Orders and became pastor of the Parish of St. Maurice in Ingolstadt, where he became a professor at the University of that city. He gained such a great reputation that he was appointed to serve as a Canonical Visitor to examine the Prince-bishopric of Eichstätt.
His sermons had already won for him a reputation as a sacred orator when he entered the Society of Jesus at Vienna in 1637. He was then already fifty years old.
Faber joined the faculty of the Jesuit university in Tyrnau (which became the University of Budapest), then in the Kingdom of Hungary, now Trnava in Slovakia. It was there that he died in 1653.
