Readers are invited to read a book by the famous German orientalist and Bible scholar, Julius Wellhausen, which examines the history of religion - especially the history of Christianity and the Israeli-Jewish religion. At one time in the West, this work became a reference book for everyone who wanted to get acquainted with the Old Testament. The author, with his unusual extraordinary clarity and wit, casts a glance back at the whole path taken by biblical criticism and confidently and calmly raises the question with an edge: should it not be finally recognized that the so-called legislation of Moses does not begin, but ends the history of Israel?
