 The resulting moral freedom so that the texts of the Pentateuch is, in our opinion, one of the best arguments against the charge of pantheism that some thought they could do to him. There is no doubt that if the base was pantheism of Hebrew thought, freedom in Scripture would not occupy an important place, because nothing is more repugnant to pantheism as free will. One can even say that freedom is the main and perhaps the only negation, since it is the clearest manifestation of personality and individual autonomy.
