To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But recent criticism has brought to light innumerable other errors and fallacies by which the Wellhausen theory has been supported. For ex- ample, in Exodus vi. 3 the Massoretic text makes it appear that Jehovah was not the name of God until the time of Moses. Moses had asked (Ex. Iii. 1. 3) that God should give him the authority of his "name" when he should go to deliver his people, and God had refused. But now in the sixth chapter God authorizes Moses to go to his people and speak in the •' n...ame of Jehovah. " The evidence of this appears in the emended text, which reads not " I was not known by my name Jehovah, " but reads " I had not made known to them [that is Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob] my name Jehovah. " That is, I had not given them the endorsement of ray name such as I now give you. This cor- responds to our phrase when a person is asked to " give us his name " on a note. It will be noticed that after this Closes always speaks in the name of Jehovah. Now this change in the text is the substitution of only one letter in the Hebrew, but it is sup- ported by the Septuagint, by the Syriac, and by the Vulgate versions, and is found in an early Hebrew man- uscript of the Karaite sect.
