RBL 06/2006 Friedman, Richard Elliott The Bible with Sources Revealed: A New View into the Five Books of Moses San Francisco: HarperSanFrancisco, 2003. Pp. 379, Hardcover, $29.95, ISBN 0060530693. Christoph Levin Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Munich, Germany D-80799 With this volume, the author of the best-selling introduction Who Wrote the Bible? presents a translation of the Torah in which the sources and redactions are typographically indicated. Apart from a few personal idiosyncrasies, Friedman is a supporter of the Documentary Hypothesis in the form that emerged toward the end of the nineteenth century and that was the “customary” hypothesis in pentateuchal research until it was emphatically called in question (in English-language research, first by F. V. Winnett in 1965). Accordingly, Friedman distributes the text between the sources J, E, P, and D. To these are added the redactions: R JE (which fuses J and E into JE), R (which fused JE, P, and D), other independent texts, Gen 14 as a source of its own, Deuteronomy (Dtn), and two redactional layers within Deuteronomy: Dtr1 (from the time of Josiah), and Dtr2 (from exilic times). The translation takes up almost the whole of the book (33–368). It is supplemented by a brief bibliography (369–79) that refers the reader to other works by Friedman and to select titles on pentateuchal research. Recent German-language exegesis is not taken into account, with the exception of E. Blum, R. Rendtorff (in English translation) and H. H. Schmid, and there is no discussion of even their positions. For Friedman, the Documentary Hypothesis is, essentially speaking, self-evident.
