Publisher's Synopsis

""The Books of the Pentateuch: Their Origin, Contents, and Significance"" is a comprehensive study of the first five books of the Bible, also known as the Torah or the Pentateuch. Written by Frederick Carl Eiselen in 1916, this book provides an in-depth analysis of the historical, literary, and theological aspects of the Pentateuch. The book begins with a discussion of the origin of the Pentateuch, including the various theories of authorship and the historical context in which it was written. Eiselen then delves into the contents of each of the five books, providing a detailed analysis of the stories, laws, and religious practices contained within. Throughout the book, Eiselen highlights the significance of the Pentateuch in both Jewish and Christian traditions, and explores the ways in which it has shaped the beliefs and practices of these religions. He also examines the relationship between the Pentateuch and other ancient Near Eastern texts, shedding light on the cultural and historical context in which it was written. Overall, ""The Books of the Pentateuch: Their Origin, Contents, and Significance"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of the Bible, ancient Near Eastern history and culture, or the development of religious traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
