Some asked about Friedman on Torah's reputation.

So I asked AI: how respected in judaism is Richard Elliott Friedman, the scholar who wrote Commentary on Torah?

Here is AI answer

Richard Elliott Friedman is highly respected as a leading modern biblical scholar in academic and liberal Jewish circles, known for bringing source criticism into conversation with traditional Torah commentary. His Commentary on the Torah is praised for its clear translation and ability to blend academic, historical-critical approaches with traditional Jewish, or "plain sense" (peshat), interpretation.

Key points regarding his reception in Judaism:

Academic Acclaim: He is recognized as a premier Bible scholar, holding prestigious positions at the University of California, San Diego and University of Georgia, with work focusing on the Documentary Hypothesis.
Bridge Between Worlds: While deeply academic, his work is appreciated in Reform and Conservative Jewish communities for engaging with traditional texts while offering fresh,, critical,, and, sometimes, provocative, insights, according to Jewish Journal and Goodreads reviews.
Reception in Orthodox Circles: Due to his academic conclusion that the Torah is a composite of sources edited over time—rather than written entirely by Moses—his work is often viewed with caution or rejected in traditional Orthodox circles that adhere to Mosaic authorship, as indicated by Wikipedia and WordPress discussions.
Reputation: He has been called "one of the greatest biblical scholars of our age" and his work has received awards like the National Jewish Book Award finalist in 2005.

His Commentary on the Torah is often considered a valuable, if non-traditional, resource for understanding the composition of the text.

MY COMMENT: His hypothesis about a portion of Torah was written by someone other than Moses appears indisputable because the ending has Moses' death in third person is clearly narrated by someone else, and it continues just before the arrival in Canaan which Moses was barred by God from seeing. Hence, the second document hypothesis seems reasonable if not impossible to deny.
