Quoted in Thomas Paine’s Age of Reason, Conway vol. 4, pages 100-101.
The passage, therefore, that I have quoted — that “these are the kings that reigned in Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel”, could only have been written after the first king began to reign over them; and consequently that the book of Genesis, so far from having been written by Moses, could not have been written till the time of Saul at least.
