Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a work of historical criticism. It analyses the book of Genesis, arguing that the five books of the Old Testament known as the Torah (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) were not written by Moses in the 13th century B.C. The author shows by careful scrutiny that the texts in the book of Genesis can be traced to a later period and could only have been written by multiple unknown authors at different points in time, with different perspectives. This book provides an accessible and scholarly contribution to the study of the Torah, making it essential reading for academics and everyday readers alike.
