207 of the critics really are, and how unlikely that their views shall permanently prevail ! The whole pro- cedure is far more like a product of the imagination than the result of sober criticism. In the fifth place, reasons can so far be given for the use of the divine names Jehovah and Elohim, without assuming distinct documents and different authors of these documents. We have already seen that the first hint of the documentary hy- pothesis was given to Astruc from the way in which these div...ine names were found in Genesis. Find- ing these names used separately and conjointly in certain passages, the conclusion was reached that there must have been separate documents from which the compiler of Genesis drew his mate- rials. The hint thus given was by other writers extended to the whole Pentateuch at least, and the existence and use of a great many documents \/as assumed by the critics. Now against this view it can be shown, with a good deal of certainty, that these names denote different aspects of the Divine Being, and that the name of the Almighty which occurs in any special passage agrees with the gen- eral subject matter of that passage.
