Books by Thomas Romer

Who invented God? When, why, and where? Thomas Roemer seeks to answer these enigmatic questions about the deity of the great monotheisms-Yhwh, God, or Allah-by tracing Israelite beliefs and their context from the Bronze Age to the end of the Old Testament period in the third century BCE, in a masterpiece of detective work and exposition.

In contrast to the Torah/Pentateuch, the Deuteronomistic History is not recognised by Jewish or Christian tradition as a separate collection. An investigation of the Deuteronomistic History, this work provides students and scholars of the Old Testament with a guide to this important subject.
