But nwr, it's easy to say that the scribes of old were idiots.
They wrote, and they're not here to defend themselves. Tell me, when did writers become intelligent.
What about the book of Enoch or Gilgamesh. Are the authors dreaming or are they writing about real things or is there blur in the interpretation?.
Much of the problem is that one must put himself in the mindset of the writer. By using current idealogy one seems to assume that the writer had the same knowledge that we have today. If one puts himself in the mindset of the writer that was prevalent at the time of the writing or compilation, then one can see that the story may have been seemingly true at the time but now considered false. The authors weren't dreaming or in a blur, just uninformed, whether it was Genesis, The Illiad, Gigamesh or any other ancient writings.
