Overview

Excerpt from The Pentateuch and Book of Joshua, Vol. 3: Critically Examined IN this Third Part Of my work I had intended, as I said in Part II, to enter into a close examination of the book Of Genesis, and seek to assign the different parts of it, with such degree of probability as the case admits of, to their respective authors.' I had also stated that in Part III we should have to 'consider at length' the questions affecting the origin Of the book of Deuteronomy, 'in order to be able to detect the passages due to its author in the books of Genesis, Exodus, &c.' I have found it necessary, however, in this Part to confine myself to the latter portion Of my proposed undertaking, in order that I might do the work required more thoroughly, and place the evidence, in as clear and complete a form as possible, before the eyes of my readers. It seemed Of the more importance to do this, and to confine attention for the present to this particular point, inasmuch as the evidence in this case is so very distinct and decisive, that, if I carry my readers with me here, I shall have, in effect, accomplished my main Object in these criticisms, and cleared the way, at all events, for an intelligent and unbiassed examination Of the whole question.
