Understanding The Pentateuch
Publisher Description
Who wrote the Books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy ‒ the first five books of the Bible known collectively as the Pentateuch? The Jewish and Christian tradition is that it was Moses, accepting that there are some later additions ‒ such as a mention of the death of Moses, and the names of some people who lived later. But is the belief that Moses wrote the Pentateuch credible today? J Stafford Wright, renowned evangelical theologian and principal of Tyndale Hall Theological College from 1951 to 1969, presents a powerful case for accepting the traditional view of authorship.
