Noth argued that the History was the work of a single individual living in the 6th century, but scholars today tend to treat it as made up of at least two layers, a first edition from the time of Josiah ( late 7th century ), promoting Josiah's religious reforms and the need for repentance, and ( 2 ) a second and final edition from the mid 6th century.

* Martin Noth ( 1902-1968 ): developed tradition history and undertook important work on the origins of the Pentateuch and the Deuteronomistic History.

This approach holds that Noth was right to locate the composition of the History in the 6th century, but that further redactions took place after the initial composition, including a " nomistic " ( from the Greek word for " law "), or DtrN, layer, and a further layer concerned with the prophets and so called DtrP.

However, against Noth and others, he held that the so-called Yahwist, the oldest literary source in Genesis, Exodus and Numbers, was written in the 6th century BCE as a prologue to the older Deuteronomistic History, and that the socalled Priestly Writer of the Pentateuch was a later supplement to this history.

Martin Noth was of the opinion that it dated from the 3rd century BCE, and Gary Knoppers, while acknowledging that Chronicles theoretically could be written anywhere between 500 and 250 BCE, tends to see it as probably dating between 325 and 275 BCE.

In 1943 the German biblical scholar Martin Noth suggested that this history was composed by a single author / editor, living in the time of the Exile ( 6th century BCE ).

A major modification to Noth's theory was made in 1973 by the American scholar Frank M. Cross, to the effect that two editions of the history could be distinguished, the first and more important from the court of king Josiah in the late 7th century, and the second Noth's 6th century Exilic history, and other scholars have detected many more authors / editors than either Noth or Cross allowed for.

Noth maintained that the history was written in the early Exilic period ( 6th century BCE ) in order to demonstrate how Israel's history was worked out in accordance with the theology expressed in the book of Deuteronomy ( which thus provides the name " Deuteronomistic ").

Noth believed that this history was the work of a single author, living in the mid-6th century BCE, selecting, editing and composing from his sources to produce a coherent work.

Frank Moore Cross later proposed that an early version of the history was composed in Jerusalem in Josiah's time ( late 7th century ); this first version, Dtr1, was then revised and expanded to create a second edition, that identified by Noth, and which Cross labelled Dtr2.

Albrecht Alt and Martin Noth hold that, " The figure of Isaac was enhanced when the theme of promise, previously bound to the cults of the ' God the Fathers ' was incorporated into the Israelite creed during the southern-Palestinian stage of the growth of the Pentateuch tradition.

According to the theory of the Deuteronomistic history proposed by Martin Noth and widely accepted, Deuteronomy was a product of the court of Josiah ( late 7th century ) before being used as the introduction to a comprehensive history of Israel written in the early part of the 6th century ; later still it was detached from the history and used to round off the Pentateuch.

A. Emerton notes that it is “ widely agreed ” that the story of Judah and Tamar “ reflects a period after the settlement of the Israelites in Canaan .” He also suggests the possibility that it contains “ aetiological motifs concerned with the eponymous ancestors of the clans of Judah .” Emerton notes that Dillman and Noth considered the account of the deaths of Er and Onan to “ reflect the dying out of two clans of Judah bearing their names, or at least of their failure to maintain a separate existence .” However, this view was “ trenchantly criticized ” by Thomas L. Thompson.

The term was coined in 1943 by the German biblical scholar Martin Noth to explain the origin and purpose of Joshua, Judges, Samuel and Kings: these, he argued, were the work of a single 6th century historian seeking to explain recent events ( the fall of Jerusalem and the Babylonian exile ) using the theology and language of the book of Deuteronomy.

Noth was born in Madison, Wisconsin, the youngest of three sons of Jeanne L. Parr, a former CBS news reporter, and Charles James Noth, an attorney and insurance salesman.

The book was also a criticism of the school of Tradition history advanced most notably by Hermann Gunkel and Martin Noth: Van Seters " argues that Noth's ( 1948 ) idea of a " pentateuchal oral tradition " is flawed both historically ( with respect to the history of Israel ) and analogically ( given Noth's comparisons with the development of Icelandic saga ) contends that traces of folkloric structure do not make it inevitable ' that the tradition as a whole, or even parts of it, derive from a pre-literate period '".

In the following decades Hermann Gunkel drew attention to the mythic aspects of the Pentateuch, and Albrecht Alt, Martin Noth and the tradition history school argued that although its core traditions had genuinely ancient roots, the narratives were fictional framing devices and were not intended as history in the modern sense.
