Delitch Discredited

Delitch Discredited.—Some time ago this German critic made the assertion that Moses borrowed the name Jehovah from the literature of the time of Hamurabi (the Amraphel of Genesis 14). Dr. Hilprecht, who knows more concerning such matters than perhaps any man living at the present time, has taken up the assertion, and declares that there is absolutely no ground for any such statement. He states that there is positively no cuneiform text published which contains the divine name Jehovah. All the weight of evidence gathered from the clay tablets and the stone temples is against the assertions of these destructive critics. The Word stands, and will stand forever.
