It’s strange to see Yehezkel Kaufmann’s name again. They shoved him down our 
throats in high-school. It was at that point that I developed an allergy to 
the documentary hypothesis, be it J-E-D-P (Wellhausen) or J-E-P-D (Kaufmann.) 
IIRC, he argued that Yehezkel (the prophet) had catatonic schizophrenia – why 
do they teach teenagers this staff? (I suppose to stick it to the rabbis.) 
What a relief it was to discover Umberto Cassuto. I had felt at the time, in 
my adolescent mind, that Koyfmann basically tore the Bible to pieces and 
implied it was written/edited by psychotic morons, whereas Cassuto restored 
the integrity of the text in all its glory. What a shame he died without 
completing his work. If it weren’t for Cassuto I would have given up on the 
Bible.

the ideas of yehezkel Kaufmann, because he wrote his magnum opus, A History
