Example text

Wellhausen himself chose to ignore this evidence almost completely after the earliest publications of these Amarna Tablets came out in the 1890s. He refused to come to terms with the implications of the now-established facts that Canaan even before the Israelite conquest was completed contained a highly literate civilization (even though they wrote in Babylonian rather than their own native tongue). The later proponents of the Documentary Hypothesis have been equally closed-minded toward the implications of these discoveries.

Each of these has been pointed differently by the Masoretes from what is indicated by the early versions or (in some cases) by the New Testament. 1. Isaiah 7:11 contains the invitation to King Ahaz to name any miraculous sign he wishes to confirm that Isaiah's message of deliverance for Judah by God is truly of the Lord. " This amounts to inviting him to name any kind of miracle in the heaven above or in the earth beneath. " The LXX has eis bathos ("to the deep"); likewise Aquila, Symmachus, and Theodotion render it either eis bathos or eis Haden ("to Hades").

That is to say, the Bible offers testimony of the existence of a personal, miracleworking God, who revealed His future purposes to chosen prophets for the guidance and encouragement of His people. Through the abundance of fulfilled predictions, the Scripture furnishes the most compelling evidence of the supernatural, as exhibited by a personal God who cares for His people enough to reveal to them His will for their salvation. But the rationalist approaches all these evidences with a completely closed mind, assuming that there is no such thing as the supernatural and that fulfilled prophecy is per se impossible.
