Ge...n. Introd. § 0. ). As Deuteronomy everywhere goes on the supposition that the other hooks are Mosaic documents, the greater is the necessity we are laid under not to restrict the expressions, "all the words of this Law" (v. 12), and " the book of this Law" (v. 26) to a particular portion of the Pen- tateuch, but to recogize them as bearing a reference to the whole. This however frees the work from all suspicion of subsequent adul- teration or interpolation. A work which contains these require- ments, has by them given its readers the possession of such a cri- terion with respect to itself, that its claims may with little trouble be either recognized or rejected.
