A Commentary on the Book of Genesis, Chapter Three by James Thomas Lee Jr (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

One cannot study the opening chapters of the book of Genesis without getting into some very weighty issues. There is, of course, the first chapter that talks about Creation. But there are also other issues as well. For example, who wrote the book of Genesis? Not everyone will agree that it was Moses. Plus, when, if he did write it, did he actually write it? As will be seen in that part of this text, the higher critics have argued against Moses for a reason that will be shared at that time. But other critics have also argued against Moses, as being the author of the first five books of the scriptures, by speaking about something that is called the Documentary Hypothesis. Each of those matters will be discussed in naming the author of the book of Genesis and the date of authorship. Then, after settling the Moses-authorship question, the next topic to be addressed will be the Moses-content question. The conclusion from those discussions will be that the opening chapters of the book of ...
