Excerpt from The Triple Tradition of the Exodus: A Study of the Structure of the Later Pentateuchal Books, Reproducing the Sources of the Narrative, and Further Illustrating the Presence of Bibles Within the Bible
JE in the middle Books of the Pentateuch. The surpris ingly cordial welcome accorded me by critics at home and abroad, and the excellent account given by the publisher, have suggested a new volume, independent indeed of the Genesis of Genesis, but of similar form and character, continuing the analysis to the end of the Pentateuch. We reach thus, with the death of Moses, a convenient stopping-place, though by no means the conclusion of the documents. The period between this event and the death of Joseph, includes the whole Story of the Exodus in its three great divisions, Deliverance from the Bondage of Egypt, Constitution of the Nation, and Wandering in the Wilderness. If occasion serve, the analysis of the three sources may be continued throughout the book of Joshua, and of the two older through Judges and part of Samuel down to the founding of the monarchy, under the title, The Conquest of Canaan.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the sources behind the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, examining the documentary hypothesis that these books were not written by Moses, but rather compiled from various sources over time. The author, a skilled biblical scholar, argues that the three main sources, known as J, E and P, can be extricated from the text, and that these sources represent distinct stages in the development of Israelite religion and history. Through a detailed analysis of the different sources, the book provides valuable insights into the origins, evolution, and significance of the Hebrew Bible, shedding new light on the complex process by which it came into being. This fascinating and erudite work will appeal to anyone interested in the history and study of the Bible.
