stories which are not only the evident originals of those related ia Genesis I-XI, but which also correspond in some cases with the different strands of narrative perceptible in the Pentateuch. Such is the three-fold proof of vocabulary, style and discoveries, that the Pentateuch is not the finished work of Moses 1250 BC, but of severals writers and editors from times far earlier than Moses to the period of Ezra who lived 800 years later. The strands of four chief writers can be on- ravelled from our present Hexateuch though the long bistory connecting these to their primitive sources cannot be wholly traced.
