2.1 The Pentateuch, An Introduction

This episode provides an overview of the Pentateuch, known more commonly as the first five books of the Old Testament. I also dive into the theories surrounding who wrote the books including the documentary hypothesis. This will all serve as a background for the deeper dive into that time and region, which will be the focus of this chapter. Join me next week when I’ll start with the history of the book of Genesis, including tablet theory.   After listening, let me know what you think.
