5/17/1844 Julius Wellhausen was born. He became a “German biblical scholar.” He published (1878) History of Israel in which he argued the JEDP Hypothesis (type of religious evolution), claiming Pentateuch had four sources, thus weakening the Bible.
5/17/1881 The Revised Version (EV or ERV) of the New Testament was first published (England).
