[QUOTE="Aelred of Rievaulx, post: 68910079, member: 382192"] I think the current academic consensus is still that the Pentateuch was written by the Jahwist, Elohist, Priestly and Deuteronomic authors, yet this documentary hypothesis has been significantly criticised by RN Wybray back in 1987 and currently there are quite a few scholars (particularly the biblical minimalists) who tend to view the Pentateuch (along with most of the OT) as a Persio-Hellenistic text. I, for many reasons, would agree and I'd agree with Wybray also that it is quite impossible to identify different sources in the texts. Most biblical scholars today, as far as I can tell, seem to be more interested in thematic studies and commentaries on the "final versions" rather than digging around the texts to find a pre-history.
