The methodology of the DH is text analysis. Text analysis is common in literature studies and jurisprudence. It's a very common tool in locating plagiarism. And, it's also a tool in splitting the book of Isaiah into two or more pieces.
One of the main reasons I heard over the years for opposing the methodology
of DH is that it can be applied to only one document, that it cannot
accurately describe any other document. If it cannot be applied to any other
document, why should we trust it when applied to Bible?
