Nehemiah Gordon said theory is that the pentetuch was a whole bunch of small scrolls that were put in order by scribes. Order was sometimes chronological and sometimes by theme or writer. This still does not allow for all differences we see, but helps us understand difficulty of putting it together. My problem is who wrote each piece and when.
Aren't there earlier texts that are way before the bible or Torah like Sumarían ancient texts and cuneiform texts describing the earliest reports?Also obviously first hand 👏 testimonies are the ones to delve into deeper studies ❤.I want to know if it's a first hand report who's the CLAIMAINT and is it possible to compare with earlier texts
