1 | How can moses say about his burrial? | OT general | BlackDiamond | 115930 | ||
The first five chapters was written by moses and how can he himself say about his death and his burrial? | ||||||
2 | How can moses say about his burrial? | OT general | ischus | 115969 | ||
BlackDiamond, obviously Moses did not write this part. He did not write a lot of Deuteronomy- see how it is talking about Moses from the third person for the most part. Many think that Joshua was recording these words of Moses... but the final person to write in it was many many years after Moses. See how the last few verses talk about how there has "never" been another "prophet" like Moses in all of Israel? Why would someone write this about him right after he died? This was written long after Moses, and after several prophets had come and gone, giving this person someone to compare Moses to. ischus |

ischus, While I realise that the Mosaic authorship of Deuteronomy has been attacked by critics, there is solid evidence, both Externally and Internally that he alone is the author. Externally,The OT attributes Deuteronomy and the rest of the Pentateuch to Moses (Josh. 1:7, Judg. 3:4, 1 Kin. 2:3, 2 Kin. 14:6, Ezra 3:2, Neh. 1:7, Ps. 103:7, Dan. 9:11. Mal. 4:4). Internally, Deuteronomy includes about 40 claims that Moses wrote it. Read Deut. 31:24-26. And, Deuteronomy fits the time of Moses, not Josiah. It is generally agreed that Moses obituary in Chap. 34 was probably written by Joshua. The last 3 verses of the Pentateuch (34:10-12) can be properly viewed as an appropriate epitaph for this great man. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

BradK, I agree with these general statements, and I do not subscribe to Welhaussen's views on the bible. It is clear that Moses was not the only author of the Pentateuch however, and to say that he was ignores both internal and external evidence. ischus |

ischus, I'll leave my response to these 2 points: 1. I never said anything about Welhaussen's Views, etc. ( I don't even know who he is); 2. So YOU say! What internal and external evidence has been ignored? Would you care to provide us with some? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

BradK. Why is it that some of the pentateuch is written from the first person (Moses) and that some of it is from the third person? Does this not show that someone other than Moses was writing? In Deuteronomy, do you think that Moses was writing down his speaches while he was talking? Do you think that Moses is the author of Numbers 12:3? Is it not obvious that there are two different accounts of the creation in Gen 1 and 2? Do you think Moses wrote both of these, even though one is more traditional, poetic, with much older Hebrew, and does not contain the name Yahweh, while the other is more theological and focussed and logical? You already know that I believe that the bible is God's word- my point is that he used more people than we give credit to in order to give us his word. ischus |

ischus, Well, no I didn't know what you already believed about the bible, that it is God's Word. But, you've clarified that point, and on that we can agree. Your "why" questions have been answered as far as I'm concerned. You still have not provided any conclusive Biblical evidence or support of scholars who would say otherwise. I'm only asking- reasonably- that if you truly believe what you're stating, then back it up with something other than your opinion:-) Is that fair? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Fair. :) I will bring some stuff home from the library either today or tomorrow, unless I can find something on the internet. BUT- if you do agree with me on any part of what I said please tell me and save me the trouble of spending the day in the library. :) ischus |

ischus, Let me say this: It's strictly YOUR choice to persue this topic or not! I'm not in agreement with you on debating the Mosaic authorship of Deuteronomy- or for that matter any other Canonical Books. As to the reference to religioustoerance.org. Don't waste my time, please! This is very liberal site that disputes essentially ALL of the Cardinal Doctrines of the Christian faith, Biblical Authority, the Diety of Christ, etc. This will be my final question and response to you, ischus: why would someone who claims to be "evangelical" and "conservative" hold to such views? Answer if you wish, but I have better persuits of my time:-) God Bless, and best wishes, BradK |

BradK- sorry about that site- I have never even heard about it... I just got it off of a search engine that taked about documentary hypothesis. If you would have read my whole post you would have seen that I DO NOT AGREE with it, but that I wanted you to see the argument. It is pretty foolish to not even look at the information and discount it as heretical without even reading it, just because of the website. ischus |
