With questions of textual criticism I have not been concerned. The date and origin and authorship of those documents which may have been used in the writing, or subsequent redaction, of the Book of Genesis, are not the matters which lay in my way. But, quite apart from all such studies it is surely a very interest ing and instructive thing to lay the narrative as it stands side by side with the daily increasing information which comes to the student of Egyptian lore, and of other branches of Biblical archaeology.
