8, 9 and 10 Book of Moses

The Hebrew name for the book of Genesis is "Bereshit" ("In the Beginning"). The title itself is the first word of the book. The Russian name "Genesis" is a translation of the Greek title of this book according to the Septuagint (an ancient Greek translation of the Old Testament, carried out in the 3rd century BC) and means "Origin". Being is a book about what began to be. The book tells about the origin of heaven and earth, about the creation of man and his fall, about God's promise of the Savior and about God's covenant with man. The first book of the Bible, Genesis, contains no mention of the author. However, it is generally accepted that Genesis, like all the Pentateuch (the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy), was written by Moses. The reason for this is, firstly, the Jewish spiritual tradition, which has always recognized (and recognizes) the authorship of Moses. Christianity also agrees that Moses is the author. Doubts about the author of the book of Genesis (as well as the time of writing this book) have been put forward by negative cr 8, 9 and 10 Book of Moses iticism already in modern times. At the same time, critics cannot agree on the author, and their statements are speculative in nature, since they are devoid of justification and are based solely on a subjective and formal approach to the text. Moreover, this approach completely ignores the main distinguishing feature of the book of Genesis - its inspiration and the inspiration of the author. The author of the book of Genesis was a man who not only received the greatest revelations of God, but was also able to accept these revelations, understand them and present them in such a way that they would be available to both his contemporaries and distant descendants. The author of the book of Genesis was able to combine the tradition of personal revelation of God to man, which is reflected in the line Abraham - Isaac - Jacob, with the idea of ​​the Most High - the Creator of heaven and earth, and everything that fills them. The person who wrote this book had to have personal communication with the living God and at the same time have a thinking that is directed not to subjective experiences, but to global, universal problems of being, far beyond the personal and national. And such a person could only be Moses. By the will of God, it was he, the only one, who turned out to be the focus of Egyptian scientific knowledge and Jewish divinely revealed spirituality. The richest factual (historical, geographical, ethnographic, etc.) material available in the book of Genesis, its literary form and artistic devices directly and indirectly testify not only to the highest education of its author, but also indicate the Egyptian origin of this formation. According to the testimony of ancient writers - Strabo, Aristotle, Plato - Egypt in ancient times served as a world archivist and historiographer. And the richest material, saved and accumulated for centuries by the Egyptian priests, by the will of the Almighty, was provided to Moses - the adopted son of Pharaoh's daughter. Apart from Moses, only Joseph had such an opportunity - to get acquainted with the "wisdom of the Egyptians". But the Bible does not say anywhere that Joseph, unlike Moses, took advantage of this opportunity (Acts 7.22). Egypt brought up a thinker in Moses. The Jewish spiritual tradition instilled in him the knowledge of the One God, and once in the wilderness, after fleeing from Egypt, the knowledge of God turned for Moses into the knowledge of God as the One Being (Ex. 3,14). This moment - the voice of God, uttering from the burning bush: "I am who I am" (Ex. 3:14), - is central to the Pentateuch, uniting his books into a single whole and pointing to Moses as the author. In Ex. 3.6 For the first time, God calls Himself by this name, while Moses was able to understand that Jehovah is the God of revelation. And he consistently expressed this understanding of himself in the book of Genesis: all cases of the use of the name of God there - Jehovah in one way or another indicate the relationship between God and man. An equally important argument in favor of the fact that the book of Genesis was written by Moses, and he did this in the early years of the exodus from Egypt, is the fact that this book contains the original history of the people of Israel and their covenant with God - the inheritance of the promised land.
