Robert Benjamin Kübel, born February 12, 1838 in Kirchheim unter Teck, died December 4, 1894,[1] was a German Evangelical Lutheran theologian.

Kübel, who became a professor of dogmatics and ethics in Tübingen in 1879, can probably be described as the last academic representative in Germany of the so-called biblical realism that originated from Beck and ultimately from Bengel and Swabian Pietism. Even in practical ecclesiastical terms, in his critical attitude to the state church form and the folk church ideal combined with a devout attachment to the ecclesiastical order as well as to many expressions of modern religious life in general, his sympathy for the formation of "small churches within the church" and so on, he fulfilled Beck's traditions.
