We can't possibly know what the author meant except on the basis of our determination of the meaning of the text, so why not just focus our attention to meaning on the text?
我们无法知道作者是什么意思,除非以我们对文本意思的分析为基础,因此,为什么不仅仅将我们的注意力,集中在文本的意思上呢?
That would make more sense. It's up to us to construe the text.
那能说明更多东西,是我们在分析文本。
The historical critical method, and the documentary hypothesis in particular, are not inherently biased, I want to make that point very strongly. They are simply analytical tools: look at the text and its features and draw some conclusions based on what you're finding.
这里我想要特别强调的是,历史的批判性研究方法,尤其是底本学说,本身是不带偏见的,它们只是分析工具,对文本及其特征进行评判,然后根据你的发现作出结论。
