Who Wrote the Bible? The Documentary Hypothesis

  • Scholars have concluded Moses didn't write the Five Books of Moses. Who did?
    The “Documentary Hypothesis” is the most widely accepted explanation of the Bible's authorship among modern scholars. Although Moses was traditionally considered the author of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible (Torah, or Pentateuch,) in this lecture we look at historical, archaeological, mythological, and literary evidence that suggests many different sources were compiled primarily during the Babylonian exile, many centuries after Moses would have lived, if he was a historical figure at all.

    It is refreshing to hear a self-identifying Christian delivering a cogent lecture on the origins of scripture instead of engaging in dubious logical apologetics in an attempt to justify their belief in Biblical inerrancy.

      Tell me about it, as sumbunny who was raised in the southern United States I almost experienced shock induced head-explodey after discovering this channel.
      Even the "nicest" Christians out there practiced shunning techniques on me. No need to mention what the regulars did, most of us already know that experience.
      If more Christians behaved like this there sure would be a lot less angry, resentful atheists in the world.

      Yes, those of us who grew up in the "land of Biblical Inerrancy" (The American South) grew up with a lot of nonsense that the scholarly interpretation doesn't need. Trying to say the Bible is inerrant, but then watching someone dance around the many, many inconsistencies and contradictions was always fairly ridiculous.

    I've always been so amazed at that "say you're my sister" story being repeated three times, twice with the same king involved. I wonder if Abimelech was like, "Hey, did your father come through here about twenty years ago? I knew it! He pulled the same trick! What's wrong with your family??"

    As a former Jehovah"s Witness this was a hugely enlightening lecture! Ive read yhe bible 3x in english, once in Spanish and ive read the Greek Interlinear Translation.
    This shows how much goes over your head when you're reading and not actually analyzing. Horeb vs Saini; Raul vs Jethro; the differences in the 10 commandments; Learning El, Elohim and YahWeh don't all represent the name of God, nor were the regering to the same God in the beginning or that Elohim is Gods plural!
    There was so much we thought we knew that we didn't remotely understand which i now realize is common trait of that religion.
    Excellent work. (No offense to J.Ws)

    • @annepoitrineau5650
      @annepoitrineau5650 2 года назад +1

      I know who he was: the creator of anthroposophy, which is a mixture of philosophy and guide to life/principles. I used to teach on a Rudolf Steiner school. We were also supposed to read his written work as part of our employment. Very dense stuff linguistically. Like JJ Rousseau: asking the right questions does not mean you are also able to provide the right answer. Steiner (or Walsdorf in English speaking countries) schools can be very good for some kids, and I met some wonderful people. On the other hand, a bit of sectarian whiff, and they are currently vaccination sceptics, which is not a good plan.

That means that 5 of the 7 were allowed to be eaten by those who were to withstand the plight of being within the ark.

      Mat 22:37-40 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

I recently read an article on NYTimes regarding an old story about an archaeologist who discovered an ancient version of Deuteronomy (possibly dating to the 1st temple period). It was declared a forgery and the discoverer later committed suicide. However, now there are scholars saying it may not have been a forgery but it is long lost. This was about 100 years ago.

That’s just going by what the scriptures state. There could’ve been more dialogue between God & Noah that wasn’t recorded in that conversation.

As far as I'm concerned they lived in a kind of hell compared with the reality of us in the developed world. The romans and the Greeks couldn't imagine a world without slavery either. Actually slavery is kind of a feature of civilisation. Early prositution was slavers renting out female slaves to be graped all day every day. Many, many wives were slaves by our modern concept; they didn't agree to marry, most were too young to bear children safely, they couldn't refuse consent or leave by free will. Weve only started to understand how disgusting it is recently, like last 2 hundred years maximum. In my mothers lifetime a woman could divorce her husband without going to court and in my lifetime a woman gained the right to give or refuse sexual consent - were Australian. These are very modern concepts, and Judaism and Christianity doesn't reinforce these things, us humans just got more ethical as our life got better and more educated so we could develop more empathy.

      Probably about the same stuff animals in captivity in those days got to eat. 40 days isn't enough time to reproduce for most larger mammals, but it is enough for mice. Though 40 is a special number in such ancient texts, there is no reason to assume a literal interpretation, on the contrary there are various indications not to.

      Even if that part of Genesis 7 is interpreted that way, Genesis 6 clearly states one pair of all animals and birds. Genesis 7 states 7 pairs of clean animals and birds, and 1 pair of unclean animals. Feels like two accounts placed side by side.

I was simply quoting the words of the apostle a Paul (1 Corinthians 1:19-21) who in turn was quoting the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 29:14) who was actually quoting the words of the author of the Bible, Jehovah God. He mocks the pride and false wisdom of both those who proclaim them selves wise and the sycophants who praise them. Jehovah said: “I will make the wisdom of the wise men perish, and the intelligence of the intellectuals I will reject.“ As Paul put it, the “so called” wisdom of this world actually prevents them from getting to know God. The prophet Jeremiah predicted that; “The wise have been put to shame. They have become terrified and will be caught. Look! They have rejected the word of Jehovah, And what wisdom do they have?

Daniel was a prince of Israel taken captive and lead away to Babylon as a slave where he rose to a prominent position serving several kings. Other prophets who lived at this time does not write of Daniel or even mention his name or vice versa so does that cancel their books out. When you have two accounts of the same thing that means one version is contributed to the writer that he did not write or copied version in error throwed together.
