Edward Frederick Moldenke (or Moldehnke;[1] 10 August 1836 – 25 June 1904[1]) was a Lutheran theologian and missionary who worked in Prussia and the United States.

He was then successively principal of a parish school at Eckersberg, Prussia, and professor in the gymnasium of Lyck (now in Poland).

He died in Watchung, New Jersey on 25 June 1904, shortly after 20 of his parishioners were killed in the sinking of the PS General Slocum.

With others he began the Lutherisches Kirchenblatt in Philadelphia in 1884, and edited Siloah, a monthly paper of the general council in the interest of German home missions beginning in 1882.

He edited Darstellung der modernen deutschen Theologie (Presentation of modern German theology, Watertown, Wisconsin, 1865).
