Topic: De Wette


  
  Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette (January 12, 1780 - June 16, 1849), was a German theologian.
De Wette has been described by Julius Wellhausen as "the epoch-making opener of the historical criticism of the Pentateuch." He prepared the way for the Supplement-theory.

 Christian de Wet - LoveToKnow 1911
CHRISTIAN DE WET (1854-), Boer general and politician, was born on the 7th of October 1854 at Leeuwkop, Smithfield district (Orange Free State), and later resided at Dewetsdorp.
He served in the first Anglo-Boer War of 1880-81 as a field cornet, and from 1881 to 1896 he lived on his farm, becoming in 1897 member of the Volksraad.
De Wet wrote an account of his campaigns, an English version of which appeared in November 1902 under the title Three Years' War.

 Anti-Jewish Interpretations of Psalm 1 in Luther and in Modern German Protestantism
Therefore, writes de Wette, "The Hebrews had to hold on to this faith even more firmly because their morality and piety were theocratic, that is, consisted primarily in keeping of the Law and in ritual observance and thus was something external.
Although de Wette does not say so explicitly, the entire thrust of his argument suggests that one is to assume that the "external" morality and piety of the Hebrews—or of their equivalent, the Jews[13]
De Wette’s equating of Hebrews and Jews in his early work is clearly illustrated in the two following quotations: "Our Psalm belongs to a later time because of its recommendation of love of the Law and study of the Law, which was more a thing of later Jews" (p.

 Religion and the Rise of Historicism: W.M.L. de Wette, Jacob Burckhardt, and the Theological Origins of ...
From Kant, de Wette acquired conceptual tools that allowed him to transpose the content of his faith into impregnable philosophical abstractions, while Schelling's romantic idea of the Absolute enabled him to recast his faith in a form at once emotionally and metaphysically compelling.
De Wette's ideas threw Burckhardt into a crisis of faith so severe that the young aspirant to the ministry abruptly forsook the study of theology and turned to history.
Through confronting the radical historical criticism and innovative theology of de Wette, Burckhardt arrived at the conviction that Christianity belonged in the realm of purely human periods of history, and hence he resolved to treat it as he would any other part of the human past.

 19th CENTURY BACKGROUND TO CONTEMPORARY THEOLOGY
De Wette acknowledge that it was S.’s (and Fries’ strikingly similar) approach to religion that had freed him to investigate the Bible critically, without fearing that his investigations and conclusions would destroy his faith.
It should be noted that although de Wette is best known for his criticism of the Old Testament, he also wrote an important introduction and commentary to the New Testament, to which he applied the same critical principles he had applied to the study of the Old Testament and with equally devasting results.
Far from seeing his work as merely destructive, de Wette saw his work as preparatory to an appreciation and appropriation of the religious spirit and the work of God in and through the religion of Israel and its continuation and fulfillment in the life and work of Jesus of Nazareth.

Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette, 1780 - 1849
Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette was one of the first theologians to attempt to reconcile modern philosophy and biblical criticism with Christian faith and traditional piety.
For the Transcendentalists, de Wette served as a powerful advocate to counter the accusation of their opponents that theological radicalism led inevitably to "infidelity" and irreligion.

De Wette began full-toned: "The highly versatile author, always appearing with distinction, has applied to the N. the critical acuteness which was a delight for the works of Plato-and not in vain!
After examining the linguistic peculiarities of 1 Timothy, De Wette makes the hypothetical objection that with this kind of argument one could render every letter suspect, which must necessarily have "something of its own," and points out, first of all, that this would also be true then for the other Pastoral Epistles.
In his Lerhbuch der historisch kritischen Einleitung in die kanonischen Bücher des Neuen Testaments, (21830, 275-288), De Wette weighed a combination of Schleiermacher and Eichhorn, i.e., that all the Pastorals might be inauthentic, but that 1 Tim was compiled from 2 Tim and Titus (286f.).

The old rationalism of Semler Eichhorn, de Wette, and Paulus, who held the credibility of the Bible records, but contended that they were a collection of writings composed by natural intelligence alone, and to be treated on the same plane with other natural productions of the human mind.
In some miracles Christ requires faith, but the faith is not the cause of the miracle, only the condition of His exercising the power.
The existence of the Church, the kingdom of God on earth, in which Christ and His Holy Spirit abide, rendered illustrious by the miraculous lives of saints of all countries and all times, is a perpetual standing witness for the reality of miracles (Bellar., "De notis eccl.", LIV, xiv).

One is the De doctrina christiana (begun about 397, finished 426), important as giving his theory of scriptural interpretation and homiletics; another is the Enchiridion de fide, spe, et caritate (about 421), noteworthy as an attempt at a systematic collocation of his thoughts.
The author of the De mortibus persecutorum (vi) is authority for the statement that an edict hostile to the Christians was promulgated, but that before it could reach the border provinces the death of the emperor intervened.
Eusebius speaks neither of the actual issue of an edict nor of its execution, and this accords with the known character of the emperor and the conditions prevailing in the empire.

 DeWette
Though his appointment had been strongly opposed by the Theologically orthodox Protestant party, De Wette soon won for himself great influence both in the university and among the people generally, for his style- if not his theology.
However, since the Textual Critics will ignore the fact that DeWette was historically wrong and innacurate, The "Progress" of Textual Criticism will continue, since the Textual Critics will themselves continue to teach the conclusions that DeWette arrived at, even though the historical basis for them is entirely lacking.
De Wette also edited Luther’s works (5 vols., 1825—1828).

 TBK - The "Historical" Jesus?
Over the centuries, because of increasingly scientific scholarship, the date of the canonical gospels has been continually pushed to later decades, as it has long been accepted that there is absolutely no evidence, internal or external, for such an early date.
The early dating is mere wishful thinking on the part of those who truly believe that Jesus Christ existed and that his words, deed and life were faithfully recorded by eyewitnesses, i.e., his disciples.
Such a scenario is not reality, however, and the most scholarship can offer in bending the dates to fit the alleged advent of Jesus Christ in the time of Herod is that the gospels were composed during the last decades of the first century.

Driver says, indeed, "It is not denied that the patriarchs possessed the art of writing," but thinks the possession of a literature by them a mere hypothesis, for the truth of which no positive ground can be alleged (Gen, xlii-xliii; also Orr, POT, 375).
