The Documentary Hypothesis In Detail - Deuteronomy

Here is a table showing all the verses in Deuteronomy and which source they are from. Again, I have used two separate classifications: Richard E. Friedman's from The Bible With Sources Revealed (2003) and Samuel Driver's from Introduction to the Literature of the Old Testament (9th ed 1913). I have also marked the verses with an asterisk where they differ, and finally included some explanatory notes by Friedman and Driver.


Here's information about the table.

F - Friedman
D - Driver
Diff - Different. * if Friedman and Driver are difference; nothing if they are the same.

Sources:
Dtr1 - The original version of Deuteronomy that King Josiah had around 622 BCE. (Driver calls this D)
Dtr2 - The additional portions added to Deuteronomy after the Babylonian exile. (Driver calls this D2)
Dtn - a law code that occupies Deuteronomy 12-26. (Driver does not identify this as a separate source.)
J - J
E - E
P - P
R - Redactor

Here's the table.
