Jens Gran Gleditsch (1860–1931) was a Norwegian
theologian. He was a brother of Kristen Gran Gleditsch.[1]
Gleditsch was born on 6 December 1860 in
University of Uppsala. He was bishop at the Diocese of Nidaros from 1923 until 1928. His appointment as a bishop was very controversial at the time due to his liberal theology. He retired after only five years as bishop due to health problems, and he died three years later in Oslo on 27 October 1931.[2]
