He attended schools including the school of and the Partikularschule in Hanover. He then studied at the Gießen University from 1617 to 1620. He returned to his parents, but studied further from 1622 at the Helmstedt University, and from 1626 at the Marburg University.
His father appointed Hodenberg in 1630 to Befehlshaber of the imperial regiment Holk. In 1631, Hodenberg was appointed Regierungsrat in the Principality of Grubenhagen. He died in Osterode am Harz.
Hodenberg wrote the text of a sacred morning song, "German: Vor deinen Thron tret ich hiermit|italic=no", which is known for a setting by Johann Sebastian Bach.[1]
