The Wiseman hypothesis, sometimes called the tablet theory, is a third theory of the authorship and composition of the Book of Genesis, occupying a medial position between traditional Dictation Theory (that God dictated Genesis to Moses on Mount Sinai) and the Graf–Wellhausen or documentary hypothesis, popularly known as JEDP. The theory suggests that many passages used by Moses or other authors to compose Genesis originated as histories and genealogies recorded in Mesopotamian cuneiform script on baked clay tablets, handed down through Abraham to later Hebrews.
