Wellhausen died on 1918 January 7.  Someone has correctly harmonized the English and German Wikipedias.  Richard David Ramsey 03:57, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

message: User:PiCo,
You has removed the this section from this Article. You gave POV as the reason. It is a substantial part of the article. I am not an expert in this field but I think that the article has lost a lot of useful information. What about reinstalling it and marking up the sentences that you believe are POV.
Thanks

message: The 'What is the JEDP Theory? at GotQuestions.org' link not especially concerned with Julius Wellhausen, nor is it a good refutation of Documentary Hypothesis. I'm not especially familiar with WP rules, but I don't think that link has a place on a biographical article of Wellhausen.Stelorl (talk) 05:36, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Assessment comment

message: Jewish scholars of religion were rarely satisfied with Wellhausen's treatment of Judaism.  The old Jewish Encyclopedia said "Although his works are monuments of marvelous scholarship, they may be said to be marred by an unmistakable anti-Jewish bias and a consequent ignoring of the labors of Jewish writers." and Solomon Schechter said that the "Higher Criticism" should really be called the "Higher Anti-Semitism".

replies: text: Yeah, those German scholars saw Protestantism as the peak of religion, and therefore saw the rituals of Judaism as decadent religion, this has been properly explained by newer scholars. Tgeorgescu (talk) 19:28, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

text: Wellhausen did engage in anti-Jewish and anti-Catholic polemics, and he conflated his own religious prejudices with his scholarly work. But this is something known to all serious Bible scholars, a sign that in his time Bible scholarship was yet in a rather puerile (or unprofessional) stage of development. His JEDP is no longer the dominant paradigm of European Bible scholars, but scores highly in the US. tgeorgescu (talk)  22:25, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Perceived anti-Jewish bias

message: Wellhaussen worked with a Bible scholar called "Graf", and the Documentary hypothesis used to be known as the "Graf-Wellhaussen hypothesis". Why is there no mention of Graf in this article? Rollo August (talk) 18:53, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
