Author Disputes the Mosaic Authorship and Authenticity of the Torah

Critical errors cast doubts on the inerrancy of the Torah.


Cerritos CA – WEBWIRE

El-Soudani’s book is one of the fewest to critically examine the inerrancy of the Torah.

Aerospace materials scientist Dr. Sami El-Soudani had studied the Abrahamic faiths for twenty years – and uncovered several errors in the Torah (which refers to the Five Books of Moses). The author writes extensively on these errors in his book In the Beginning: Hijacking of the Religion of God: Volume 1: Judaism (Xlibris, 2009).
 
In the second chapter of the book (“Men Practiced Hijacking Long Before They Had Wings”), the author casts doubts on the Mosaic authorship (of the Torah). He contends that Moses could not have authored the Torah, given the contradictions and confusion of events in the Jewish biblical history. It is a known fact that “the Torah was repeated by word of mouth, and only after many generations it was set down in writing.” This fact alone disputes the authenticity of the Torah because scribal errors may have been inserted in the Written Torah while the Oral Torah was being transmitted from generation to generation.
 
Investigations by biblical scholars also reveal that the Written Torah “was largely a product of historical events spanning several centuries of engaging combat between the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah on the one hand, and their surrounding hostile dynasties on the other.” Also, the contending priesthoods that operated within the two Jewish kingdoms “engaged in writing and rewriting the Torah in several versions”. In doing so, they had to seek financial help from the rules of their time. Their actions lead to the publication of conflicting versions of the Written Torah.
 
Jewish and non-Jewish readers should not dismiss In The Beginning as an anti-Semitic book but as a critical evaluation of their holy scripture.
