Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Julius Wellhausen (1844 1918) first published this work in German
in 1878. Reissued here is the 1885 English translation of a revised
1883 version. Intended as a multi-volume work, this first book now
stands as a self-contained work. A biblical scholar and
orientalist, Wellhausen was professor of theology at Greifswald
(until resigning for reasons of conscience) and then professor at
Halle, Marburg and Gottingen. An early exponent of scientific
philology, he placed the Pentateuch in a historical-social context,
setting aside theological traditions. In this work, he sets out his
method and argues that the Pentateuch is a synthesis of four
independent narratives. He then examines the history of worship,
sacrifice, sacred feasts, priests, and the law in ancient Israel.
Wellhausen is a central figure in modern biblical studies, his
theory dominated scholarship for a century, and his pioneering work
remains of great interest in the field."
