Sweeney (Edwards the Exegete, 19): "Most accounts of the rise of higher critical work in America still spotlight nineteenth-century trends in research institutions. This tendency derives in part from dated but still common attributions of its European roots to liberal Germans--men like David Friedrich Strauss, F. C. Baur, and Julius Wellhausen, and schools such as the University of Tubingen. However, as recent scholarship has shown beyond the shadow of a doubt, higher criticism took its rise two centuries before, mainly in England and the Netherlands."

Old De Moor is in agreement with this new scholarship.
