He at first applied himself to the cloth trade, being trained in Amsterdam and later, ca. 1636-ca. 1642, by his father's cousin, Jan Tonnis at Emden, whose family name (van den Tempel) he took. From 1645 he had a cloth shop at Leiden. He was not only a businessman, but also a well-known and, in his time, famous painter, particularly painting portraits. His pictures are still found in the Amsterdam Rijksmuseum, the Mauritshuis museum at The Hague, and the city museum of Leiden. One of the well-known Dutch painters who was influenced by van den Tempel was Frans van Mieris, who may have been a Mennonite, and who worked in his studio.
