Did Moses write the Book of Genesis?

Opinion Mosaic authorship is supported for the following reasons: . more evidence in favor of Mosaic authorship than againstit. . archaeological discoveries support a single author . ancient literature supports that Genesis fits into thehistorical setting and timeline of Moses' life and d…o not fit thetime-scale of the later date of multiple authors as proposed in thedocumentary hypothesis. . until 200 years ago, Moses was accepted as the author. Others are of the opinion that Moses compiled the historic recordknown as Genesis from documents handed down by the ancientpatriarchs and added explanatory comments. So, Moses is thusregarded as the author of Genesis, although using eyewitnessaccounts from an earlier time. Opinion Moses did write all of Genesis. This is able to be believed bythose who a real supernatural all powerful God and that the Bibleis the inspired Word of God. Moses wrote it, nor did he collect it from a bunch of people andcompile it. If you read the first five books of the Bible, you willnotice over and over again that God from the fire on the mountain,or from the cloud etc. etc., spoke to Moses. And it wasn't justvoices in his head - the whole congregation saw the cloud! He spoketo Moses what He wanted Moses to write and say. That is what divineinspiration is all about. God wanted specific things down to thevery letter written down perfectly. Moses got the informationincluded in the Book of Genesis from God Himself, from one of theirmany conversations together. If I accept that the God of the Bibleis God, I also feel safe to conclude that He is also an expert onthe subject of the Beginning and of the material he gave to Mosesto write down in Genesis, and so it can be thought of as exactlyreliable information. So it really comes down to one thing - is God who He says He is inthe Bible, Is the God of the Bible God. If He is, then all that iswritten in the Bible is true and from Him because God ensured thatit would be, so that He would have an accurate means ofcommunicating to man. Answer Archaeologists have been saying for decades that there isabsolutely no physical evidence to support the story of the Exodus. It is fact that there is no evidence at all for a world-wide flood.It is fact that archaeologists and other earth scientists havedenied that Adam and Eve were real...now DNA science has confirmedthis...they never existed. What do these actual facts do to the myth of Moses. The stories arejust mythical nonsense and Moses never wrote the Book of Exodus. Answer Moses is traditionally considered the author of the Book ofGenesis. He could not have known anything about the eventsdescribed, but the assumption of this tradition is that God toldMoses what to say. On the other hand, the consensus of biblical scholars is that Moseswas certainly not the author of Genesis . They say that Genesis was written over a period of several centuriesduring the first millennium BCE, and that the book was produced bythree principal sources, all anonymous and now known as theYahwist, the Elohist and the Priestly Source.

When did Moses write the Bible?

According to classical Judaism, Moses was regarded as the author ofthe Torah (the first five books of the Bible, known to Christiansas the Pentateuch), receiving it from God either as divineinspiration or as direct dictation together with the Oral Torah.Tradition says that this happened during the E…xodus, around 1440BCE. However, over the years several questions have arisen, oneexample being the record in Deuteronomy 34 of Moses' death. TheTalmud explains this by saying that Moses wrote it in tears inanticipation of his death. Modern scholars say that the Pentateuchwas really written around one thousand years after the timeattributed to Moses. On this view, Moses did not really write anypart of the Bible. . Answer 2 Tradition states that the Torah was given by God to Moses (Exodus24:12) in 1312 BCE. Moses taught it to the people (Exodus ch.34),and put it in writing before his death (Deuteronomy 31:24) in 1272BCE. This following article will show the reliability of the HebrewBible. First, it will point out a few of the many shortcomings ofBiblical-Criticism. . Who proposed the Documentary Hypothesis? In the mid-1800s, professor Julius Wellhausen (the father of modernBiblical-criticism, 1844-1918) and others, proposed thisHypothesis, concerning the origin of the Hebrew Bible. Like Darwin,Wellhausen was a former Divinity student who left the fold; andlike Darwin, he decided to form a secular theory in his field ofstudy. As with Evolution, Wellhausen's theory was accepted quicklyby the academic world, undergoing later change but unchanged in itsbasic premise. . What is the Documentary Hypothesis? Basing itself on linguistics and usage, the Hypothesis splits thenarrative of the Hebrew Bible and attributes it to various unknownauthors (Priest, Deuteronomist, etc. [J,E,P and D]), despite (forexample) the Torah's explicit statement as to its Divine provenance(Exodus 24:12) and having been written in its entirety by Moses(Deuteronomy 31:24), and despite the unbroken national tradition ofthe authorship of each of the Prophets (Talmud, Bava Bathra 14b). The Hypothesis also post-dates many of the other books of theHebrew Bible, ascribing them to unknown authors centuries later.This has the effect of minimizing the reliability of these books,causing them to be seen as not much different than any randomancient text. . What do the JEPD theorists ignore? The intricate tapestry of the Hebrew Bible uses literary devices toenrich its text. The Jewish sages, based on ancient tradition,identified many of these devices, which include: . Recapping earlier brief passages to elucidate, . Employing different names of God to signify His variousattributes, . Using apparent changes or redundancies to allude to additionalunstated details, . Speaking in the vernacular that was current during each era.Instead of consulting the Jewish Oral Tradition and commentarywhich accompanies the Tanakh, the Bible-Critics have formed secularconclusions. What are some problems with the JEPD (Documentary) Hypothesis andBiblical-Criticism? While hundreds, perhaps thousands of examplescould be given to demonstrate the lackings of these theories, hereare just a few: . 1) Unlike the Bible-Critics who possess no early source, theHebrew Bible has been handed down since its beginning, in anunbroken chain of tradition for which we possess the names,biography and dates of the leading sages in every singlegeneration. Every verse is elucidated in the Talmud and midrashim. . 2) No parchment, scroll, or inscription has ever been foundthat would support the Bible-critics' JEPD (different sources)hypothesis, which remains a set of postulates. And those ancientwriters who mention, describe, summarize or translate the Torah(Josephus, Samaritans, Targum, Septuagint etc.), describe it in itscomplete form. . 3) Archaeological finds, such as the Ugarit documents and thoseof Nuzu, Mari, Susa, Ebla, and Tel el-Amarna, have repeatedlycaused the critics to retract their claims. The entire socialmilieu portrayed in the Torah, once criticized as anachronistic,has been shown to be historically accurate, including customs ofmarriage, adoption, contracts, inheritance, purchases, utensils,modes of travel, people's names and titles, etc. Professor GleasonArcher Ph.D of Harvard University states: "In case after case wherehistorical inaccuracy was alleged as proof of late and spuriousauthorship of the biblical documents, the Hebrew record has beenvindicated by the results of excavations, and the condemnatoryjudgment of the theorists have been proved to be withoutfoundation." . 4) The theorists postulated a late date for Deuteronomy. Thisis refuted by the fact that all the early books quote Deuteronomy.Joshua 22:5 quotes Deut.11:22, Joshua 23:16 quotes Deut.11:17,Judges 1:20 fulfills Deut.1:36, Judges 7:3 fulfills the command ofDeut.20:8, 1 Kings 8:51 quotes Deut.4:20, 1 Kings 9:8-9 quotesDeut.29:23-24, and 2 Kings 14:6 quotes Deut.24:16. . 5) Because of its antiquity, only in the Torah is the femalepronoun "hee" spelled with a letter vav; the word "asher" is usedexclusively; Jerusalem and the kings are not mentioned, etc. . 6) Unlike what the theorists claim, no Levite or Kohen("priest") would have voluntarily invented the Torah in whole or inpart. The Torah allows no portion of the land for the Levites(Numbers ch.8), it states that Leah (ancestress of the Levites) wasless-favored (Genesis ch.29), it records the curse against Levi(Genesis ch.49), the rebellion of Korah the Levite (Numbers ch.16),and the role of Aaron the Kohen in the events of the Golden Calf(Exodus ch.32). . 7) Some JEPD theorists question the very existence of Moses. Inso doing, they not only ignore the continuous tradition of theentire Jewish nation, but also the statements of ancient writersincluding Hecataeus, Strabo, Alexander Polyhistor, Manetho, Apion,Chaeremon, Tacitus, Porphyry, Artapanus, Eupolemus, Ben Sira, theGreek Septuagint, the Samaritans, Josephus and Philo, all of whomtestify that Moses was an actual person. . 8) The Aramaic portions of Ezra were post-dated by thetheorists. But inscriptions showed that these passages were exactlyin keeping with the style of the Assuan papyri, dated from thereign of Ahaseurus and Darius. . 9) The fact that the Septuagint and the Dead Sea scrolls (andall other ancient sources) include the complete text of Isaiah,refutes the "Deutero Isaiah" theory. . 10) The critics created the notion of a rival priesthood inShilo. No evidence has ever been found of this; and all extantpriest-families (Kohens) are linked by a DNA gene, thus debunkingalso the "Khazar" canard. . 11) One Bible-theorist, Richard Elliott Friedman claims that"The author of the J document was more interested in thepatriarchal period while the author of E was more focused on theExodus and wilderness age." However, neither Friedman nor any Biblecritic ever interviewed the postulated J or E to hear their focusor interests, or even saw a manuscript attributable to them. Allthat we hear about J and E derives from what the critics themselvespostulate. Overstatements of this kind go far beyond the type ofcaution one might expect from a scholar. . 12) The critics attempt to break down the continuity of theTorah based on style and vocabulary. Their breakdown often cutsverses into three or four parts, claiming a different writer foreach part. But in dealing with so many different topics and eras,it stands to reason that the Torah would use different styles. Thenarrative of Genesis would not function in a style appropriate tothe laws of Leviticus. Just as Shakespeare's plays and sonnetsdiffer yet had one author, (and the same goes for your own resumeand shopping lists), so the Torah employs styles depending on thesubject matter. Also, those familiar with Torah-commentatorsrecognize that every question asked by the bible critics was asked,and answered, centuries ago. . 13) "Whoever wrote the narrative of Joseph was quite familiarwith Egyptian life, Egyptian literature and culture. In particularhe was expertly informed concerning the Egyptian royal court"(Prof. Alan Sherman). Some specific examples . 1) Critics claimed that the descriptions in the Book of Estherwere unrealistic. But when the French archaeologist MarcelDieulefoy excavated Susa, he stated that the author of Esther musthave been closely familiar with the details of the city and theroyal palace, which by 1900 had been buried for 2300 years. . 2) The critics asked how Cyrus' famous proclamation could bedated "the year one" (Ezra 1:1), seeing as it was made in the 21styear of his reign. But then archaeologists found inscriptionsstating that when Cyrus conquered Babylon, they began to count theyears from that date. . 3) The secular scholars saw as "unlikely" the royal curse inEzra 6:12 made by Darius. But inscriptions were found in which moreterrible curses were proclaimed by Assurbanipal, Sennacherib,Sargon and other kings. . 4) The critics denied the narrative of how the Judean kingMenashe was captured by the Assyrians. But in the ruins ofKuyundshik was found an inscription by Esarhaddon, enumerating 22foreign kings that he and Assurbanipal captured, including Menasheking of Judah. . 5) The destruction of Sennacherib's army at the walls ofJerusalem was denied by the theorists. But then it was found thatBerosus and Herodotus both state that Sennacherib's militarycampaign in Judea ended in plague and defeat. It should notsurprise us that the Assyrians themselves didn't record their ownlosses. . 6) The existence of the Assyrian king Pul (2 Kings 15:19) wasdenied. But a tablet, now in the British Museum and dated the year22 of Darius, states that Tiglat-Pileser and Pul are the sameperson. . 7) The critics sought to discredit the invasion of Judah bySheshak, king of Egypt (2 Chronicles 12:4). But Champolion theFrench archaeologist, discovered an inscription at Karnak relatingSheshak's conquest of the cities of Judah in detail. . 8) It was claimed that the camel hadn't been domesticated inAbraham's time. But the Canophorin tablet, dating from 18th centuryBCE gives a list of fodder for camels and other household animals.And a cylinder seal from Mesopotamia, dating from the patriarchalera, shows riders sitting on camels. . 9) The term "achol et kaspeinu" ("our money was eaten," Genesis31:15) is spoken by Rachel and Leah concerning an inheritance fromtheir father Laban. This term is found nowhere else in the HebrewBible. Five documents have been unearthed in which 18th century BCEAkkadian marriage contracts use this exact terminology, in the samecontext. We thus verify again that no postulated late redactorcould possibly be credited with such specific knowledge of an eracenturies before his own. . 10) The names Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Laban, Balaam and Josephwere used in the Patriarchal period and dropped out of usagethereafter. These names appear in archaeological inscriptions fromthat period and no later period. How did those verses getappropriate names for that period of time (if they were createdcenturies later)? . 11) Joseph is sold for twenty pieces of silver. That was theaccurate price of a slave in Joseph's time, and at no other time.Slaves were cheaper beforehand, and they got increasingly expensivelater. How would a later redactor know the right price? Some indications of the Divine origin of the Torah . No other religion claims a national revelation, because that issomething that cannot be fabricated. . Moses was no zoologist, yet he knew all the species named inDeuteronomy ch.14 and the nature of their digestion (verses 7-8). . No Israelite of any tribe, had the Torah been a humaninvention, would have made Abraham the father of Ishmael, hisfirstborn (Genesis ch.16). No Israelite would have written thatIsaac fathered Esau (Gen.ch.25). Nor would he have admitted thestigma that the Israelites had been slaves (Exodus ch.1). NoIsraelite would have penned the prohibition against warring withAmmon and Moab (Deut.2:4,9,19), who became enemies; nor would hehave ascribed one of our important national institutions to aforeigner (Exodus ch.18). . In no other religious text can one find such criticism of itsown protagonists. No one is immune to having his faults exposed:Abraham (Genesis 16:5), Reuben (Gen.ch.35), Simeon and Levi(Gen.ch.34 and 49), Judah (Gen.ch.38), Joseph's brothers(Gen.ch.37), Moses (Numbers ch.20), Aaron (Exodus 32:2-4), Samson(Judges 14:1-3), Eli's sons (1 Samuel 2:12), Samuel's sons (1Samuel 8:1-3), Saul (1 Samuel ch.15), David (2 Samuel ch.11-12),Solomon (1 Kings ch.11), and many others. . No human would have forbidden farming for a whole year everyseven years (Leviticus ch.25). . No other ancient record has such a coherent and detailedaccount of the genealogy of nations (Genesis ch.10). A few examples of fulfilled prophecies: . The Torah predicts the settling of the Holy Land (Deuteronomych.12), the construction of the Sanctuary (ibid), the laterDestruction and complete scattering of the Jews (ibid. ch.28), andthe later Return (ibid ch.30, and Isaiah 43:5-6). All these havebeen fulfilled. It also predicts that the Jews would never becompletely wiped out (Leviticus 26:44), which is itself ahistorical miracle. . Noah's blessing of "God will enlarge Japheth" (Genesis ch.9)has been fulfilled through the empires of Persia, Greece, Rome,Russia and America. . God's promise to make Ishmael into a great nation (Genesisch.17) has been fulfilled through the wide band of Arab and Muslimcountries stretching from western Africa to Indonesia, well over1.5 billion people. . God's warning that "you shall go lost among the nations"(Leviticus 26:38) was fulfilled through the loss, to this day, often of the Israelite Tribes. . Moses' blessing to the Levites that God would "smite the loinsof those that rise against him" (Deuteronomy 33:11) was fulfilledthrough the miraculous victories of the Hasmonean kohanim over theSeleucids. . The prophecy that "Edom will be inherited by Israel" (Numbers24:18) was fulfilled when the Hasmonean king Hyrcanus subdued theEdumeans and converted them (Josephus, Antiquities 13:9:1). . The prophecy that the Torah would never die out (see Gen.32:33,Deut.31:21, Esther 9:28, Isaiah 59:21) has been fulfilled, againstall odds. . The prophecy that the recently-barren Israel would once againbloom (Isaiah 41:18-20), has been fulfilled. . The prophecy that Egypt would no longer rule over other nations(Ezekiel 29:15) has been fulfilled. Until the time of Ezekiel,Egypt had dominated a number of nations. But for most of the past2500 years, Egypt has been controlled by foreign powers, includingthe Romans, Ottomans and Europeans. Today, Egypt is independentagain. In 1948, 1967 and 1973, Egypt tried to dominate Israel butwas unsuccessful each time. . The prophecy that enemies of the Jews would reside in Israel(Leviticus 26:32) was fulfilled from the time of Nehemiah untiltoday. . The prophecy that Babylon's kingdom would be permanentlyoverthrown (Isaiah 13:19) was fulfilled. After Cyrus conqueredBabylon, it never again rose to power as an empire. . The prophecy that Tyre's fortresses would fail (Amos 1:9-10)was fulfilled. The Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar attacked themainland of Tyre, and later in 333-332 BCE Alexander the Greatconquered the island of Tyre. Alexander's army built a causewayfrom the mainland to the island so that they could use a batteringram to breach the island's fortress. . The prophecy that Nineveh would be permanently destroyed (Nahum3:19) was fulfilled. The prophet said that Nineveh, which was theAssyrian Empire's capital and perhaps the most powerful city at thetime, would suffer a wound that would never heal. The city ofNineveh, as well as the Assyrian Empire, never recovered from itsdefeat at the hands of the Babylonians. These are just a few examples. (MORE)

Where did Moses prophetically write of Jesus?

Moses did not write prophetically about Jesus. However, Burton L.Mack ( Who Wrote the New Testament ) says that there is atrick that seems to come naturally when studying the Bible. One canask any question of the Bible and get some kind of answer. If thefirst answer does not appear to be helpful, on…e can look foranother answer to the same question, until the right answerappears. So, some say that Deuteronomy 18:15-18 is a prophecy ofJesus: The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from themidst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shallhearken; According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy Godin Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear againthe voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fireany more, that I die not. And the LORD said unto me, They have wellspoken that which they have spoken. I will raise them up a Prophetfrom among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words inhis mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall commandhim. This passage does not mention Jesus and does not say anything thatidentifies the prophet as Jesus, nor does it describe him as theSon of God or anything more than a prophet. It could refer to anyof the major prophets to come, or any one of the many other Jewswho claimed to be the Messiah. By itself itself it is meaningless.However, the author of Matthew's Gospel did draw some parallelsbetween Jesus and Moses. He said that the (step) grandfather ofJesus was called Jacob, parallelling Jacob in the old Testament. Inboth cases, the king ordered the slaughter of all the infants, andin both cases there was a flight to Egypt. The problem with this isthat the author of Luke's Gospel knew nothing of this. He said thatthe (step) grandfather of Jesus was called Heli; the king did notorder the slaughter of the infants and there was no flight to Egypt- the family returned peacefully to Galilee. So, did the author ofMatthew know about Deuteronomy 18:15-18 and seek to identify withit? More evidence that Deuteronomy 18:15-18 could not have been aboutJesus is found in the verses that follow it. Here (Deuteronomy18:19-22), the Deuteronomist seems to be explaining how to know areal prophet from a pretender, rather than actually prophesyingJesus: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto mywords which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name,which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in thename of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if thou say inthine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath notspoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if thething follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which theLORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken itpresumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him. So, Deuteronomy 18:15-22, taken as a whole, was really a promisethat there would be prophets to come, and an explanation of how toknow if someone was a real prophet. Moses did not writeprophetically about Jesus. (MORE)
