DaTH

I used to think of DaTH (dawth) as meaning void, since that's the way the fluffy bunny new age kabbalah

books present it. I was curious one day and decided to see if the word was in the Bible (in Hebrew version)

and found that it means something like the Law written in our hearts, a kosmic consciousness that lets us

know if we are in sync with the Tao That Be (or however you want to describe it). Here are a few of mynotes on my research into DaTH.

Go on a spiritual quest to find values you can hold up as being what you stand for. You have found your

inner DaTH. You have found the law written in your heart. What is law? A king gives a decree or edict that

is the expression of the kings will. *Esther 3:14, 8:13, 9:14+ There was the concept that once a king issued

this DaTH, it cannot be altered or revoked. [Daniel 2:15, 6:16] DaTH is entrusted to people. In the case of

civil law, this DaTH is in the hands of judges, enforced by police, argued by lawyers, voted upon and

recorded by politicians.

The Israelites had the concept of the ToWRaH being the DaTH of Yahweh. Ezra was given the title of

Secretary of the irrevocable DaTH of the Almighty of heaven. [Ezra 7:2, 1 Esdras 8:9] The irrevocability of

the DaTH from Yahweh was not questioned by Yahshua. Yahshua was not out to destroy the ToWRaH

representing the DaTH from Yahweh, but to bring it to life in the hearts of people. [Matthew 5:17] He was

not getting out a giant cosmic eraser. What he challenged was that DaTH of Yahweh was complete and

contained in scriptures and traditions. He offered that DaTH of Yahweh can be known in the heart,

directly experienced, with continued insights into this DaTH, renewed revelation, and ongoing prophecy.

This was not anti-Jewish at all. The idea was found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Jews continued to redefine

DaTH with the Mishnah, the Talmud, the Kabbalah, and to this day with books being published, web

sites being built, deeper insights explored and lived out.

Here is something you can count on to be true for your entire life CHoKMaH/Sophia and DaTH are

treasures that will be your salvation. The greatest treasure comes from uniting with Yahweh. [Isaiah33:6]

A treasure is a reward after following a treasure hunt. A gift is never really valued as a treasure.

YAHWEH with a multitude approaches, from his right hand comes a shining DaTH. [Deuteronomy 33:2]

DaTH is the invisible SHiPHRaH, the Law in the heart of Yahweh. DaTH is Law, but DaTH is also having an

active conscious, a living Law written in the heart. DaTH is being conscious of the will of Yahweh, which

we can concentrate upon, which we can be mindful of, which can direct our view of what Yahweh wants

in each given situation. DaTH is beyond memorizing a collection of ancient rules. DaTH is a living part of

each of us. I would dare say that people who have never heard one word of religion still know that it

would be wrong to go on a murdering spree or steal from the neighbors when they are not at home. The

commandments part of ToWRaH are not the DaTH, but are examples of using the DaTH in specific

situations. The DaTH extends far beyond the few ancient case-by-case examples of what would not be

acceptable behavior.

Thus the Jewish/Kabbalist quest for the invisible DaTH is much like the Gnostic quest for direct connect,

for gnosis. Maybe it is invisible because it is from another dimension, that light trapped in the darkness,

our core Messiahs Consciousness, our native our Nature.

DURING ASSYRIAN CAPTIVITY THE PRIEST OF YISRAWALE WHICH

WERE NOT THE SONS OF LEVI WAS CALLED KOHAN

KOHAN MEANS PRIEST IS ARAMAIC WORD THAT REPLACED

THE FORMER LEVITE PRIEST OR YAHSHEAR-DATH OR SACERDOTE

3547 kahan kaw-han' a primitive root, apparently meaning to

mediate in religious services; but used only as

denominative from 3548; to officiate as a priest;

figuratively, to put on regalia:--deck, be (do the office of a,

execute the, minister in the) priest('s office).

3548 kohen ko-hane' active participle of 3547; literally, one

officiating, a priest; also (by courtesy) an acting priest

(although a layman):--chief ruler, X own, priest, prince,

principal officer.

3549 kahen kaw-hane' (Aramaic) corresponding to 3548:--priest.

(KOHAN IS ARAMAIC)

THEREFORE THE PRIEST BEFORE ASSYRIAN CAPTIVITY WAS CALLED

YAHSHEAR-DATH or SACER-DOTE AND DURING ASSYRIAN

CAPTIVITY WAS CHANGED TO ARAMAIC WORD KOHAN.

Tribe of Levi

The tribe is named after Levi, one of the twelve sons ofJacob(later called Yahshear). Levi had three sons:

Gershon,Kohath, andMerari(Genesis 46:11).

KOHAN or KOHANIM IS PRIESTS IN ARAMAIC

Kohath's sonAmramwas the father ofMiriam,AaronandMoses. The descendants ofAaron: theKohanim

("Priests"), had the special role as priests in theTabernaclein the wilderness and also in theTemple in

Jerusalem. The remaining Levites (Levi'yim inHebrew), divided into three groups (the descendants of

Gershon, orGershonites, the descendants of Kohath, orKohathites, and the descendants of Merari, or

Merarites) each filled different roles in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple services.

Levites' principal roles in the Temple included singingPsalmsduring Temple services, performing

construction and maintenance for the Temple, serving as guards, and performing other services. Levites

also served as teachers and judges, maintainingcities of refugein Biblical times. The Book ofEzrareports

that the Levites were responsible for the construction of theSecond Templeand also translated andexplained theTorahwhen it was publicly read.

In Egypt the Levites were the only tribe that remained committed to Yahweh. During theExodusthe Levite

tribe were particularly zealous in protecting the Mosaic law in the face of those worshipping theGolden

Calf, which may have been a reason for their priestly status.

In the Torah Levites Duty

1) In theBook of Numbersthe Levites were charged with ministering to theKohanim (priests) and keeping

watch over theTabernacle:

2) And with you bring your brother also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, that they may join you

and minister to you while you and your sons with you are before the tent of the testimony. 3) They shallkeep guard over you and over the whole tent, but shall not come near to the vessels of the sanctuary or to

the altar lest they, and you, die. 4) They shall join you and keep guard over the tent of meeting for all the

service of the tent, and no outsider shall come near you. 5) And you shall keep guard over the sanctuary

and over the altar, that there may never again be wrath on the people of Israel. 6) And behold, I have taken

your brothers the Levites from among the people of Israel. They are a gift to you, given to Yahweh, to do

the service of the tent of meeting.Numbers18:2-4-6.

In the Prophets

TheBook of Jeremiahspeaks of a covenant with the Kohanim (priests) and Levites, connecting it with the covenant

with the seed of King David:

As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the

seed ofDavidMy servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me.

And the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying:

'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which Yahweh did choose, He

hath cast them off?Jeremiah33:22-24

The prophetMalachialso spoke of a covenant with Levi:

Know then that I have sent this commandment unto you, that My covenant might be with Levi, saith

Yahweh of hosts.

My covenant was with him of life and peace, and I gave them to him, and of fear, and he feared Me, and

was afraid of My name.

The law of truth was in his mouth, and unrighteousness was not found in his lips; he walked with Me in

peace and uprightness, and did turn many away from iniquity.Malachi2:4-6

Malachi connected a purification of the "sons of Levi" with the coming of Yahweh Messenger:

Behold, I send Mymessenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and Yahweh, whom ye seek, will

suddenly come to Histemple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh,

saith Yahweh of hosts.

But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's

fire, and like fullers' soap;

And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold

and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto Yahweh offerings in righteousness.Malachi3:1-3

In contemporary Jewish practice today:

Today, Levites inOrthodox Judaismcontinue to have additional rights and obligations compared to lay people,

although these responsibilities have diminished with the destruction of the Temple. For instance,Kohanimare eligible

tobe called to the Torahfirst, followed by the Levites. Levites also provide assistance to the Kohanim, particularlywashing their hands, before the Kohanim recite thePriestly Blessing. They also do not participate in thePidyon haben

(redemption of the firstborn) ceremony, because they are traditionally pledged to Divine service.Conservative Judaismrecognizes Levites as having special status, but not all Conservative congregations callKohanimand Levites to the firstand second reading of theTorah, and many no longer perform rituals such as thePriestly BlessingandPidyon Habenin

which kohanim and Levites have a special role.Reconstructionist andReform Judaismdo not observe the distinctionsbetweenKohanim, Levites, and otherJews.

Orthodox Judaism believes in the eventual rebuilding of a Temple in Jerusalem and a resumption of the Levitical role.A tiny minority of Orthodox Jews support schools, primarily inIsrael, to train priests and Levites in their respectiveroles. Conservative Judaism believes in a restoration of the Temple as a house of worship and in some special role forLevites, although not the ancient sacrificial system as previously practiced.

Reform and Reconstructionist Judaism do not believe in a future Temple at all, or in a form of worship in which role isdetermined by ancestry. However, some Reform synagogues will refer to members who volunteer to help with servicesand other functions as "Levites." This is more of an honorific title and has no basis of lineage.

Bat Levi

A Bat Levi (daughter of a Levite) is recognized as having lineal sanctity in both Orthodox and Conservative Judaism, stemming from

her traditional eligibility to receive proceeds of the Levitical tithe (Maaser Rishon). In both Orthodox Judaism and Conservative

Judaism, children of a Bat Levi, regardless of her marital status or husband's tribe, retain the traditional exemption for their children

from the requirement of being redeemed through thePidyon HaBenceremony because of this lineal sanctity.

Conservative Judaism permits a Bat Levi to perform essentially all the rituals a male Levi would perform, including being called to the

Torahfor the Levitealiyahin those Conservative synagogues which have both retained traditional tribal roles and modified traditionalgender roles.

In Biblical criticism

The parts of the Torah attributed by advocates of theDocumentary Hypothesisto theElohist, seem to treatLevite as a descriptiveattribute for someone particularly suited to the priesthood, rather than as the designator of a tribe and feel thatMosesandAaronare

being portrayed as part of the Joseph group rather than being part of a tribe calledLevi. TheLevitesare not mentioned by theSong of

Deborahconsidered one of the oldest passages of the Bible.Jahwistpassages have more ambiguous language; traditionally interpretedas referring to a person namedLevi they could also be interpreted as just referring to a social position titled levi. In the Blessing of

Jacob (later than the Song of Deborah), Levi is treated as a tribe, cursing them to become scattered; critics regard this as an

aetiologicalpostdictionto explain how a tribe could be so scattered, the simpler solution being that the priesthood was originally opento any tribe, but gradually became seen as a distinct tribe to themselves. In thePriestly Sourceand Blessing of Moses, which critical

scholars view as originating centuries later, the Levites are firmly established as a tribe, and the only tribe with the right to be priests.

Deuteronomy 10:8 At that time Yahweh separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the

covenant of Yahweh, to stand before Yahweh to minister unto him, and to bless in his name,

unto this day.


19/112


Deuteronomy 31:26 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant

of Yahweh your Mighty One, that it may be there for a witness against thee.

2Samuel 6:6 And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the

ark of Yahweh, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it.

2Samuel 6:7 And the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Uzzah; and Yahweh smote him there

for his error; and there he died by the ark of Yahweh.

King Jeroboam of Israel replaced the Legitimate-Levites Priests with Ordinary Israeli

who is Non-Levites Illegitimate Priests

1Kings 12:31 And he made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the

people, which were not of the sons of Levi.

1Kings 12:32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the

month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Bethel,

sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high

places which he had made.

1Kings 13:33 After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the

lowest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he

became one of the priests of the high places.

1Kings 13:34 And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to

destroy it from off the face of the earth.

2Chronicles 11:13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all

their coasts.

2Chronicles 11:14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and

Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office unto

Yahweh:

2Chronicles 11:15 And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the

calves which he had made.

2Chronicles 11:16 And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seekYahweh the Mighty One of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto Yahweh the Mighty One of

their fathers.

2Chronicles 11:17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of

Solomon strong, three years: for three (3) years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.

Five (5) Nations replaced Israeli in Israel land

2Kings 17:23 Until Yahweh removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the

prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.

2Kings 17:24 And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and fromAva, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead

of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.

2Kings 17:25 And so it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not

2Kings 17:26 Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast

removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the Elohim of the land:

therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not

the manner of the Elohim of the land.

ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of

the Elohim of the land.

Wellhausen Hypothesisor Graf-WellhausenIn 1876/77Julius WellhausenpublishedDie Composition des Hexateuch ("The Composition of theHexateuch", i.e. the Pentateuchplus thebook of Joshua), in which he set out the four-source hypothesis of Pentateuchal origins; this was followed in 1878 by

Prolegomena zur Geschichte Israels("Prolegomena to the History of Israel"), a work which traced the development of the religion of

the ancient Israelites from an entirely secular, non-supernatural standpoint. Wellhausen contributed little that was new, but sifted andcombined the previous century of scholarship into a coherent, comprehensive theory on the origins of the Torah and of Judaism, one

so persuasive that it dominated scholarly debate on the subject for the next hundred years.[2]

Distinguishing the sources

Wellhausen's criteria for distinguishing between sources were those developed by his predecessors over the previous century: style(including but not exclusively the choice of vocabulary); divine names; doublets and occasionally triplets. J was identified with a rich

narrative style, E was somewhat less eloquent, P's language was dry and legalistic. Vocabulary items such as the names of God, or the

use of Horeb (E and D) or Sinai (J and P) for God's mountain; ritual objects such as theark, mentioned frequently in J but never in E;the status of judges (never mentioned in P) and prophets (mentioned only in E and D); the means of communication between God and

humanity (J's God meets in person with Adam and Abraham, E's God communicates through dreams, P's can only be approached

through the priesthood): all these and more formed the toolkit for discriminating between sources and allocating verses to th em.[10]

Dating the sources

Wellhausen's starting point for dating the sources was the event described in 2 Kings 22:820: a "scroll of Torah" (which can be

translated "instruction" or "law") is discovered in the Temple in Jerusalem by the High PriestHilkiahin the eighteenth year of kingJosiah, who had ascended the throne as a child of eight. What Josiah reads there causes him to embark on a campaign of religiousreform, destroying all altars except that in the Temple, prohibiting all sacrifice except at the Temple, and insisting on the exclusive

worship of Yahweh. In the 4th centuryJeromehad speculated that the scroll may have been Deuteronomy; de Wette in 1805

suggested that it might have been only the law-code at Deuteronomy 12-26 that Hilkiah found, and that he might have written ithimself, alone or in collaboration with Josiah. The Deuteronomistic historian certainly held Josiah in high regard: 1 Kings 13 names

him as one who will be sent by Yahweh to slaughter the apostate priests ofBeth-el, in a prophecy allegedly made 300 years before his

birth. [11]

With D anchored in history, Wellhausen proceeded to place the remaining sources around it. He acceptedKarl Heinrich Graf'sconclusion that the sources were written in the order J-E-D-P. This was contrary to the general opinion of scholars at the time, who

saw P as the earliest of the sources, "the official guide to approved divine worship", and Wellhausen's sustained argument for a late P

was the great innovation of the Prolegomena.[12]J and E he ascribed to the early monarchy, approximately 950 BCE for J and 850BCE for E; P he placed in the early Persian post-Exilic period, around 500 BCE. His argument for these dates was based on what was

seen in his day as the natural evolution of religious practice: in the pre-and early monarchic society described in Genesis and Judges

and Samuel, altars were erected wherever the Patriarchs or heroes such asJoshuachose, anyone could offer the sacrifice, and portions

were offered to priests as the one offering the sacrifice chose; by the late monarchy sacrifice was beginning to be centralized andcontrolled by the priesthood, while pan-Israelite festivals such asPassoverwere instituted to tie the people to the monarch in a joint

celebration of national history; in post-Exilic times the temple in Jerusalem was firmly established as the only sanctuary, only thedescendants ofAaroncould offer sacrifices, festivals were linked to the calendar instead of to the seasons, and the schedule of priestly

entitlements was strictly mandated.[13]

The four were combined by a series of Redactors (editors), first J with E to form a combined JE, then JE with D to form a JED text,

and finally JED with P to form JEDP, the final Torah. Taking up a scholarly tradition stretching back to Spinoza and Hobbes,

Wellhausen namedEzra, the post-Exilic leader who re-established the Jewish community in Jerusalem at the behest of the PersianemperorArtaxerxes Iin 458 BCE, as the final redactor.

The documentary hypothesis (DH) (sometimes called the Wellhausen hypothesis, afterJulius Wellhausen, though he did not invent

it), holds that thePentateuch(theTorah, or the Five Books ofMoses) was derived from originally independent, parallel and complete

narratives, which were subsequently combined into the current form by a series ofredactors(editors). The number of these is usuallyset at four distinct schools, but this is not an essential part of the hypothesis.

In an attempt to reconcile inconsistencies in the biblical text, and refusing to accept forced explanations to harmonize them, 18th and

19th century biblical scholars usingsource criticismeventually arrived at the theory that the Torah was composed of selections woven

together from several, at times inconsistent, sources, each originally a complete and independent document. The hypothesis developedslowly over the course of the 19th century, by the end of which it was generally agreed that there were four main sources, combined

into their final form by a series ofredactors,R. These four sources came to be known as the Yahwist, or Jahwist, J (J being the

Germanequivalent of theEnglishletter Y); the Elohist, E; the Deuteronomist, D, (the name comes from the Book of Deuteronomy,

D's contribution to the Torah); and the Priestly Writer, P.

Julius Wellhausen's contribution was to order these sources chronologically as JEDP, giving them a coherent setting in the evolving

religious history of Israel, which he saw as one of ever-increasing priestly power. Wellhausen's formulation was:

theJahwistsource ( J ) : written c. 950 BCE in the southernKingdom of Judah. theElohistsource ( E ) : written c. 850 BCE in the northernKingdom of Israel. theDeuteronomist (D ) : written c. 600 BCE inJerusalemduring a period of religious reform. thePriestly source( P ) : written c. 500 BCE by Aaronicpriests in exile inBabylon. TheTorah redactors: firstJE, thenJED, and finallyJEDP, producing the final form of theTorahc.450 BCE.

The hypothesis dominated biblical scholarship for much of the 20th century, and, although increasingly challenged by other models in

the last part of the 20th century, its terminology and insights continue to provide the framework for modern theories on the origins of

the Torah.

Dead Sea Scroll Found about Sabbath Keeping

In the Dead Sea Scroll found that both P-Text and D-Textare NOT the reason in keeping the Sabbath. In all of this,no one method governs the process of keeping theSabbaths. This was corrected by Yahshua Messiahin Matthew 12:1-12.

Investigation of Higher Critical ResearchThe JText (Yahweh Text) and E-Text (Elohim Text)

(this was copied from internet, many thanks for the writers of this topic )

The discoveries that they all made ultimately came down to the combination of two pieces of evidence:doublets and the names of Almighty. They saw that there were apparently two versions each of a largenumber of biblical stories: two accounts of the creation, two accounts of each of several stories about thepatriarchs Abraham and Yahshear (Jacob), and so on. Then it was noticed that, quite often, one of the two

versions of a storywould refer to Almighty one name and the other version would refer to Almighty by adifferent name.

In the case of the creation, for example, the first chapter of the Bible tells one version of how the world cameto be created, and the second chapter of the Bible starts over with a different version of what happened 1 Inmany ways they duplicate each other, and on several points they contradict each other. For example, they de-scribe the same events in different order. In the first version, Elohim creates plants first, then animals, thenman and woman. In the second version, Yahweh creates man first. Then he creates plants. Then, so that theman should not be alone, Yahweh creates animals. And last, after the man does not find a satisfactory mateamong the animals, Yahweh creates woman. And so we have:

The two stories have two different pictures of what happened. Now, noticed that the first version of thecreation story always refers to the creator as Elohimthirty-five times. The second version always refers tohim by his name, Yahweheleven times. The first version never calls him Yahweh; the second version nevercalls him Elohim. Later comes the story of the great flood and Noah's ark, and it, too, can be separated intotwo complete versions that sometimes duplicate each other and sometimes contradict each other2 And, again,one version always calls the Almighty as Elohim, and the other version always calls him Yahweh. There aretwo versions of the story of the covenant between the Almighty and Abraham 1 And, once again, in one the

Almighty introduces himself as Yahweh, and in one he introduces himself as Elohim. And so on. Theinvestigations saw that they were not simply dealing with a book that repeated itself a great deal, and they

were not dealing with a loose collection of somewhat similar stories. It was discovered to have two separateworks that someone had cut up and combined into one.

The group of biblical stories that referred to the Almighty as Elohim "E," because the borrowed Hebrew wordfrom Aramaic and Egyptian word for designation for Almighty is El or Elohim. El is the diety of Egyptians.

(The word El was found at the top of a list of gods as the Ancient of Gods or the Father of all Gods, in the ruins of the Royal Libraryof theEblacivilization, in the archaeological site ofTell Mardikhin Syria dated to 2300 BC.). The other group of stories thatreferred to the deity as Yahweh "J" (which in German is pronounced like English Y).

The idea that the Bible's early history was a combination of two originally separate works by two differentpeople. Practically before anyone had a chance to consider the implications of this idea for the Bible andreligion, it was discovered that the first five books of the Bible were not, in fact, even bytwowritersbut they

were by (4) four. It was discovered that E was not one but two sources. The two had looked like only onebecause they both called the Almighty as Elohim, not Yahweh. But the investigations now noticed that withinthe group of stories that called the Almighty as Elohim there were still doublets. There were also differences ofstyle, differences of language, and differences of interests. In short, the same kinds of evidence that had led tothe discovery of J and E now led to the discovery of a third source that had been hidden within E. Thedifferences of interests were intriguing. This third set of stories seemed to be particularly interested inpriests.It contained stories about priests, laws about priests, matters of ritual, sacrifice, incense-burning, and purity,and concern with dates, numbers, and measurements. This source therefore came to be known as the Priestlysourcefor short, P. The sources J, E, and P were found to flow through the first four of the five Books ofMoses: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers. However, there was hardly a trace of them in the fifth book,Deuteronomy, except for a few lines in the last chapters. Deuteronomy is written in an entirely different stylefrom those of the other four books. The differences are obvious even in translation. The vocabulary isdifferent. There are different recurring expressions and favorite phrases. There are doublets of whole sections

of the first four books. There are blatant contradictions of detail between it and the others. Even part of thewording of the Ten Commandments is different. Deuteronomy appeared to be independent, a fourth source. Itwas called D. The discovery that the Torah of Moses was really four works that had once been separate was notnecessarily a crisis in itself. After all, the New Testament also began with four GospelsMatthew, Mark, Luke,and Johneach of which told the story in its own way.

Why then was there such a hostile reaction, among Christians and Jews, to the idea that the Old Testament(or Hebrew Bible) might begin with four "gospels" as well? The difference was that the Hebrew Bible's foursources had been combined so intricately and accepted as Moses' own writing for so long, about two thousand

years; the new discoveries were flying in the face of an old, accepted, sacred tradition. The biblicalinvestigations were unraveling a finely woven garment, and no one knew where these new investigations

would lead.

The Story of Noah

Twice

These first books of the Bible had as extraordinary a manner of composition as any book on earth. Imagineassigning four different people to write a book on the same subject, then taking their four different versionsand cutting them up and combining them into one long, continuous account, then claiming that the account

was all by one person. Then imagine giving the book to detectives and leaving them to figure out (1) that thebook was not by one person, (2) that it was by four, (3) who the four were, and (4) who combined them.

For those readers who want to get a better sense of how this tooks, It was translated the biblical story ofNoah's ark, as it appears in Genesis, with its two sources printed in two different kinds of type. The flood story

is a combination of the J source and the P source. J is printed here in regular type, and P is printed in boldfacecapitals. If you read either source from beginning to end, and then go back and read the other one, you will beable to see for yourself two complete, continuous accounts, each with its own vocabulary and concerns:
