The Dangers of Biblical Criticism—Rhetorical Criticism
Does the Use of “Elohim” and “Jehovah” Suggest Two Authors? — Analyzing Genesis 1 and 2:4
The higher critics argue that every Bible verse that contains the Hebrew word for God, (Elohim), set off by itself has its own writer, designated by the capital “E” (“Elohist”).
