These were recorded on audio-tape and burned onto CDs. The place and year of the lectures is given below. A suggested donation for each CD is $5.00 to help defray cost.

Genesis 1-11

In 2008 I published a series of commentaries on the Torah, all published by Chevalier Press (Phone (02) 9662 7894). The first is on Genesis (246 pages RRP $25.00). The Second is entitled: 'A Priestly Kingdom and as Holy Nation'. It is a commentary on Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers. The Third is a commentary on Deuteronomy, Joshua and Judges.

I gave a series of lectures on Genesis 1-11 in Canberra in 2004. I offered a revised series again in Canbera in 2008. In the light of the research that I did in order to produce the commentary I have altered my position in regards to the Source that is customarily called 'The Yahwist', and is represented in commentaries with the letter J (from the German Jahvist). In 2004 I favoured the opinion of those who placed the so-called 'Yahwist' during the reign of King Josiah of Judah (late 7th century). It seems to me now more likely that he wrote a century later (late 6th century). If this is correct it means that he was writing in the light of the experience of the Fall of Jerusalem (597 and 586) and the Babylonian Exile.
