THE AUTHOR OF TORAH---------------------->3:-(THE CDITICS HISTORY)

  We have said that "D F Payne"suggested that the first man who have begin the criticism was" Masius" But who is "Masius" ??            His name was "Andreas Masius",he was a Belgian Roman Catholic lawyer,who have published his book in "The Commentary on The Book of Joshua"at 1574,and said that Ezra added some contents to the books of " Moses." as the opinions of " Irenaeus", "Tertullian", "Clement of Alexandrea" (see 1:-the critical history) .He did not invented any real new thoughts, but he stressed on their wrong acceptance for the untrusted book, and the unworthy story ,as we proved previously. .what's make his thoughts new ,his attractive style, which admired "Benedict Spinoza" at 1632-1677 who wrote his book" Troctatus Theologico-politicus" ,at the same time the opinion of "Masius" attracts also, two of the famous ,Jesuit ,Scholars, Philosophers, "Jaque Bonfrere"and Benedict Pereira" .The false story of burning the" TORAH" were their real base added to them," Thomas Hobbes" at 1651 in his book "Leviathan"who deny the Mosaic Authorship in concern of some parts of the" TORAH", The last one in this category of the critics,who referred to the suspicious book ,was "Richard Simon" who was ALSO a Roman Catholic writer. I said also, because the attitude of the main group which they belongs to its teachings have some unbelievable thoughts, about these suspicious writings ,what "Simon" did ,is to collect the wrong thoughts during the 12 centuries before him , to pave the way for"Jen Leclerc" at 1685who added to the last opinion that    " The" TORAH" was compilation based on many documents,both divine and human origin".ALL OF THEIR THOUGHTS,WE HAVE PREVIOUSLY TREATED IN (1:-critical history)But the opinion of "Jen LeClerc"   paved the way for a new historical periods of criticism called" The "Documentary Hypothesis" -----------We shall discus it later .-------------------   Rev.Joseph
