Uncovering the HISTORICAL Age: How ANCIENT are the Books of the BIBLE

Welcome back to MythVision! I’m here with Gnostic Informant, and we are dealing with the bible and what seems to be a very complicated question. When was the bible dated?

In this episode, Gnostic Informant and I dive into the complex world of biblical origins, asking the tough questions like "When was the Bible written?" and exploring the challenges of dating the texts. We cover a variety of perspectives, referencing experts like Joel Baden, a professor of the Hebrew Bible at Yale Divinity, and groundbreaking interviews with scholars like Russell Gmirkin, Gad Barnea, and Yonatan Adler, who push the discussion beyond the traditional narratives.

⚡ Topics We Cover Include:
• The Hellenistic influence on biblical texts and how much of the Bible might be a late production.
• The role of the Alexandrian Library in shaping the Bible as a national identity for the Judeans.
• The controversial evidence suggesting that widespread practice of Judaism didn’t occur until the 2nd century BCE.
• How scholars question the idea that Moses wrote the Torah and why some believe there is little to no evidence of the biblical laws being followed before the Maccabean period.
• Parallels between Homeric traditions and biblical narratives – could stories like the Odyssey be structurally connected to parts of the Bible?
• The final formation of the Hebrew Bible and how texts evolved over centuries, incorporating influences from various cultures and traditions.

From ancient kings to controversial archeological findings, we delve into how texts and traditions have evolved and speculate on the potential cultural crossovers between the Greek and Hebrew worlds.
