Julius Wellhausen, probably the most famous representative of nineteenth century Old Testament scholarship, cannot be understood without those who blazed a trail before him. Martin Gröger examines the works of de Wette, George, Ewald, Graf, Vatke, Kuenen, and Geiger to show that Wellhausen's studies on the religious-historical development of the Old Testament takes further the findings of these researchers.
