yahwist造句

• Scholars agree that the present form of the books is the result of many centuries of development, and the essence of the documentary hypothesis is that they represents the combination of four originally independent documents, or sources : J ( the Yahwist, which consistently refers to God as Yahweh ), E ( for Elohist, because it generally calls God Elohim ), P ( the Priestly source, which reflects the interests of the priesthood ) and D ( for Deuteronomist, because it is found only in the Book of Deuteronomy ).
• He did this in keeping with the theory of history developed by the philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, according to which " history "  as a metaphysical force  pushes developments in time and space along a teleological path : Wellhausen placed the Yahwist and Elohist first because the religion he saw described in them was primitive, spontaneous and personal; in Deuteronomy he saw the influence of the prophets and the development of an ethical outlook, which he felt represented the pinnacle of Jewish religion; and the Priestly source reflected the rigid, ritualistic world of the priest-dominated post-exilic period.
• Yale University critic of secular and sacred literature Harold Bloom, who classes the Book of Moses and the Book of Abraham among the " more surprising " and " neglected " works of LDS scripture, is intrigued by the fact that many of their themes are " strikingly akin to ancient suggestions " that essentially restate " the archaic or original Jewish religion, a Judaism that preceded even the Yahwist . " While expressing " no judgment, one way or the other, upon the authenticity " of LDS scripture, he finds " enormous validity " in the way these writings " recapture & crucial elements in the archaic Jewish religion & that had ceased to be available either to normative Judaism or to Christianity, and that survived only in esoteric traditions unlikely to have touched Smith directly . " With respect to any possibility that Smith could have drawn from ancient manuscripts in his writings, Bloom concludes : " I hardly think that written sources were necessary . " Stephen Webb concludes that Smith " knew more about theology and philosophy than it was reasonable for anyone in his position to know, as if he were dipping into the deep, collective unconsciousness of Christianity with a very long pen ."
