There are various ancient speculations about the relative roles of God and Moses in the production of the text, and there is a plethora of modern investigations into the Bible's constituent documents and the authors responsible for them, but the biblical text itself is silent. The biblical narrator never identifies himself or herself and never narrates in the first person; rather he or she speaks “out of the void, in an authoritative voice that masks any authorial presence.”
