[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im reading that the Torah including the book of Genesis was written by one man. People who study this stuff say the first five books all have the same author and that they were written only several hundred years before Christ. Likely someone who had connections to Egypt because a lot of Deuteronomy was taken from Egyptian law. Genesis was basically a collection of story myths for how the world was created like Mother West Wind stories and other religions. [/quote] Actually, people who study this stuff do not at all think the first five books have the same author. There are frequent repetitions of the same story with small variations one after the other in the same chapters. There are at least two or three main voices scholars recognize. But yes, likely written 300 to 400 years before the destruction of the Second Temple, which was in 70 CE.[/quote]
