[659] Numb. xxxiii. 40 (the first text); Numb. xxi. 1–3, and xiv. 44, 45, belong to the second text; De Wette-Schrader, "Einleitung," s. 291; Deut. i. 44; Joshua xii. 14; Judges i. 17. Cf.

[660] Nöldeke explains Exod. xx. 23–26 and xxi. 1-xxiii. 19, as in substance and in part a composition of great antiquity, "Untersuchungen," s. 51.

[661] Nöldeke ("Untersuchungen," s. 62 ff.) proves that Levit. i.-xxvi. 2, and xxvii., with the exception of a few additions, especially cc. xviii.-xx. belong to the first text; and De Wette-Schrader ("Einleitung," s. 286 ff.) proves the same for nearly the whole book. Moreover, he shows at length, pp. 265, 266, that many of the ceremonial ordinances and the faith of the land in general goes back to Moses, or the Mosaic times.

[662] The Mosaic origin of the decalogue (Exod. xx. 1–17; Deut. v. 6–21) is proved in De Wette-Schrader, "Einleitung," s. 284. The original form of it, it is true, is no longer in existence.

[663] So the old codex, Exod. xxi. 1–6. The priestly law on the other hand puts off the liberation till the year of Jubilee, Levit. xxv. 39 ff.
