Publisher's Synopsis
The Antiquity Of Hebrew Writing And Literature: Or Problems In Pentateuchal Criticism is a book written by Alvin Sylvester Zerbe, originally published in 1911. The book is a critical analysis of the Pentateuch, the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Torah. Zerbe examines the origins and development of Hebrew writing and literature, exploring the historical and cultural context in which the Pentateuch was written. He also addresses various problems and controversies surrounding the interpretation and authorship of the Pentateuch, including the Documentary Hypothesis, which suggests that the Pentateuch was written by multiple authors over a long period of time. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history and scholarship of the Pentateuch, and is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Hebrew literature and biblical studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
