:''This article is about an element in the documentary hypothesis, concerning the Torah. For other uses, see ].'' | |||
''JE'' is an intermediate source text postulated by the ] for the ]. It is a combination and ] of the ] (J) and ] (E) source texts. For the purpose of this article we accept the documentary hypothesis; see ] for disputes of the theory as a whole. | |||

{{R from ambiguous}} | |||
JE treats God as a human-like figure, capable of regret, and appearing in person at events. JE also makes use of supernatural creatures such as ] as intermediaries, as well as mystical talking creatures, and supernatural objects. In JE, God is shown as merciful, and capable of being persuaded to change His mind. | |||
== The redactor of JE == | |||
JE was created when ] and ] were combined and edited together. The documentary hypothesis asserts that this occurred shortly after ] was destroyed by the ]ns (c. ]), as a result of trying to assimilate the refugees (whose traditions and religion were asserted by the E source) into the society of Judah (whose traditions and religion were asserted by the J source). | |||
Since the majority of each text was composed of traditions about events and people associated only with one or other nation, combining them would not cause conflict. However, where they differ, (for example one refers to the holy mountain as ], and the other as ]), because of the presence in a general audience of both groups, neither text could be suppressed, and the differences had to be kept in order that the resulting text was generally acceptable. | |||
It is generally considered as unknown how much of the two texts (if any) was cut to produce JE. | |||

Redirect to:
- From other capitalisation: This is a redirect from a title with another method of capitalisation. It leads to the title in accordance with the Misplaced Pages naming conventions for capitalisation, or it leads to a title that is associated in some way with the conventional capitalisation of this redirect title. This may help writing, searching and international language issues.
- If this redirect is an incorrect capitalisation, then {{R from miscapitalisation}} should be used instead, and pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the target. Miscapitalisations can be tagged in any namespace.
- Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when other capitalisations are in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead.
- From an ambiguous term: This is a redirect from an ambiguous page name to a page or list that disambiguates it. These redirects are pointed to by links that should always be disambiguated. Therefore, this template should never appear on a page that has "(disambiguation)" in its title – in that case use {{R to disambiguation page}} instead.
