Answer 1

Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli were the two men who were arranged to meet in Marburg in 1529.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two men who were arranged to meet by Philip of Hesse in Marburg in 1529 were Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli. Philip of Hesse hoped to create an alliance between the Swiss and German reformed churches with this meeting. Ulrich Zwingli was a Swiss religious leader who embraced the ideas of the Reformation and made radical changes to the church in Zurich. Martin Luther, a German monk, sparked the Reformation with his 95 Theses and had similar beliefs to Zwingli.
