"A group of authors led by Shaphan, King Josiah's secretary, wrote some three hundred chapters of scripture--one-third of the Hebrew Bible. For the first time ever, we can learn the names of those who composed Joshua, Isaiah, Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Songs, Daniel, and half the minor prophets. (Probabilities throughout the book strongly support these findings.) Moreover, those authors together constitute Dtr, the long-sought editors of Deuteronomy through Second kings. One of the most important discoveries of the Shaphan group is that Huldah the prophetess signed many chapters of Hebrew Scripture. Judged from her use of coded writing, Huldah was arguably the most accomplished writer among the group's fifteen authors. She was joined by the Priestly Source and Second Isaiah (both of whom are named), as well as others--unrecognized until now--who risked their lives to shape the Hebrew Bible."--Publisher.

Edition Notes
"This writer has worked full time on the authorship of the Hebrew Scriptures for twenty-four years--but not until after twenty-three and one-half years was the Shaphan group discovery made. In retrospect, it seems likely that other things had to precede that finding. In rough chronological order these have been: Second Isaiah's identity, coded spelling, athbash multiplication, Ezra's proper era, Word Links, Babylon's use of substitute kings, the Suffering Servant's name, Jehoiachin's fate, anagrams, the Cyrus revolt, the P Source's name, and the Ezra-Jozadak rivalry."--Pref p. ix.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 127-129) and indexes.
