The Real Authors Of The Bible - The Naked Archaeologist 124 - Who Wrote the Bible?

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.ย. 2024
- Featuring amateur archaeologist, enthusiast and multi-award winning investigative filmmaker, Simcha Jacobovici, The Naked Archaeologist is an irreverent, entertaining and eye-opening journey into the fascinating archaeology of the ancient world. Along the way, new discoveries are made, lost treasures revealed, and ancient mysteries uncovered.
The Bible is made up of dozens of books, but tradition has it that the first five books were dictated to Moses, by God. But could Moses have really written down the words that God spoke, including the Ten Commandments? The Bible says that millions of people witnessed this event - but what does archaeology say?
Illiterate? Moses grew up in the house of the Pharoah for a reason- to get educated. Even hieroglyphs of the ancient pyramids show us signs of literacy. Only Moses and/or a specially appointed assistant needed to be able to write in my opinion
A specially appointed by who? How did Moses write his own death and burial?
@@MsAriabll seriously? No-one ever said Moses was the only author of the Bible. David and others wrote Psalms, King Solomon wrote song of songs, the prophets surely wrote their own parts, any annointed person couldhave completed such a section

Hell half world are illiterate in 2022. There are numerous authors of Bible it wasn't just one or 2.
It is as if Moses even existed
I am one year late, but I am so thrilled to find your work again.
This one is particularly important to me, thanks for your contribution over the years.
GOD bless you.

They did a good job keeping the torah the same for 3000 years, but that doesn't mean there wasn't multiple authors, until they can find evidence of it before 1000 BC, the process they described is most likely how it became standardized.
See Kitchen's Ancient Orient and the Old Testament.
What I still don´t understand is since Moses lived around the 13th century BC, and the Standard hebrew saw its beginings in the 8th century BC, how did he managed to write the Torah in Hebrew. Unless you pull the Yehovah card. Moses was nursed by his mother and probably learnt to speak Canaanite or even a Paleo-hebrew, but did her mother knew how to write. His elder brother Aaron was jew and was fluent in egyptian and paleo-hebrew, Moses spoke egyptian and some paleo-hebrew, so it makes sense that Aaron was hired as Moses interpreter when speaking to the jews. In any case if the original Torah writen by Moses was in paleo-hebrew then somebody later had to transcribe the whole thing into biblical hebrew and that was a very good opportunity to change things involuntarily and voluntary. But it is an amazing feat to have some scholars that could read paleo-hebrew 500 years later after returning from captivity in Babylon. They probably had amazing universities those Babyloneans.
@@enriquegonzalezortegariver4181: "how did he managed to write the Torah in Hebrew" -- When we say that Moses wrote the Torah, we don't say that he wrote it in Hebrew.
@@davidconklin9552 So at some time, someone had to translate the original writing to hebrew with the caveats of translating from one language (an old out of current use language) to another language (a more modern language developed in a different cultural environment).
Since the process of the Documentary theory has the Bible allegedly written about 500 BC, a version of the Bible before eight hundred would disprove it. In fact if we have, as I think they say in this video, two verses from six hundred BC that would probably be before the Documentary writers began their creation of the Torah. Biblical passages themselves contest the theory, such as the passage about Josiah having the Temple cleaned and scrolls found and read. That would mean the scrolls were there before Judah went into captivity. The documentary theory has the documentary authors doing their creative writing after the Jews were carried off to Babylon.
I love the way your mind thinks. You do such a great job at research. I appreciate your movies and documentaries a lot.. Your documentaries bring the Bible alive to a modern audience. Thank you .
That is a wonderful story told regards the discovery of the pottery. Reminds me of a story here in Derbyshire (UK). The local historical society were digging a Roman barn near the village of Ockbrook and had a young teenage boy with them. To keep him out of trouble they gave him a trowel and him to dig at a particular spot. Within an hour; perhaps even less, he presented the team leader with a gold ring. The ring turned out to be one of the most significant Roman stoned rings ever found in Derbyshire.
Fellow derbion✌️
Similar to annoying boy last cave story
The phony Juice control everything. Rev 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Juice, and are not, but are the sin agag of Satan.
Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the sin agog of Satan, which say they are Juice, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. I am not sure who this describes, but I only know one group of people who call themselves J's and go to sin agag... The Dead Sea Scrolls were called fraudulent after they were discovered. The story goes that a Bed Uin Shep herd tossed a stone in a cave and heard a strange noise. Go look up pictures. He "tossed" a stone in that cave. Must of been really tall and had a great arm... Not being mean or hateful, just exposing the lies...
@@kathleenmcgill4607, I don't know that one. I was told the story by the dig leader when he presented a lecture to our local historical society.
@@dewnotbdeceived80 The Dead Sea Scrolls are consistent with the rest of the bible. Total nonsense
Great work. The only evidence we need that all the prophecy in the Bible is becoming reality
None of this proves that it was written by a single author.. it just proves that parts of the Torah were well preserved.
Solid point. Radziner Rebbe Yitzchok Englard told the story in the Hillazon episode about archaeologists not discovering any telephone lines in their digs, so that must "prove" they had cell phones two thousand years ago. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
@@jamesk.bishop105 That last bit is a huge stretch. When there's zero evidence of something after extensive searching, you gotta be crazy to assume it's true. Keep looking, but assume it's not true until you find it
@@jamesk.bishop105 of course not. They used string and clay cups😄😄
Wonderful series. For a very in depth understanding of the question at hand, you need to make an appointment at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel with Doctor Nehemiah Gordon. He has an electron microscope for detecting folical holes from dots on parchments. For the pass 20 years he has been gathering scrolls to determine why some actually have the actual authentic name of g-d or the relacement Lord. His work is very interesting & He is extremely knowledgeable in my humble opinion. He has published several books on the topic u r covering in this video.
It is my understanding that the first set of tablets were carved by G-d & given to Moses with an oral explanation that he would put them into practice & then write what he learned from G-d down. When he broke that first set, G-d had him make the tablets & also carve the words & that is why he was gone so long from his people.
Please keep unpacking this archeology. Perhaps watchers & learners of ur series need to know there is the Torah, Kabbalah, commentary & traditions. All have their place in & outside of this discussion.
May the journey of those seeking employment be met with success, may healing touch the lives of the unwell, and may the readers of this message be surrounded by love, joy, and countless blessings. 🌼🙏💫
As for the Pentateuch, I understand that although Moses was the main author, in fact with the use of scribes, he compiled most of Genesis from his Hebrew brethren and their written and oral traditions.
i disagree to what one expert says that moses dont know how to read and write because he being educated by the egytians before it was revealed to him who he really is...
Yes Moses was educated by the Egyptians of the time but they had to teach him differ languages of the time as they was training him to be a leader as he was rise by the daughter of pharaoh. Israel which speaks and writes in Hebrew Moses had to learn it as the Israel's was slaves to them at the time. And I bet Moses know some other languages also. Can not prove this but that my thoughts anyway. Simcha Jacobovici might be able to prove it. Wish he would.
I just absolutely love the way you go about inquiring, and employing the scientific method.
what? he literally said "I'm on a mission to prove there's one author, not more." Hardly an impartial inquiry that employs the scientific method...
@@akosh33 what he hears when he reads you will get joy from smashing the babies on rocks. Makes me wonder why I like him.
The problem with this subject is asking Europeans that had nothing to do with the ancient scripture
Langston Johnson you think it’s a problem having someone research something objectively?
Langston Johnson I appreciate your comment but I dont think it has anything to do with Europeans. It has more to do with the person doing the documentary. Although he sounds like a learned man, he didn't go back nearly far enough in history. He seemed to take us far enough back for the Jewish input. Which is deserves credit too. But he totally left out the Sumerians and all the books that were replicated from their religions that mirror today's bible that pre-dates the Jewish bible by hundreds if not thousands of years. The stories are almost identical.
what you are saying make no sense-nobody on earth today have anything to do with the ancient scripture, whether European or not
Langston Johnson
What Europeans? The people in this video were all Jews in Canada & in Israel.
i think what u meant should be Khazarian Jew..
Charlton Heston wrote the Bible and it was well recorded, There were several interviews to confirm all that!
Yes, Heston protesteth a bit to much... if you know what I mean.
LOL..
Ha, ha, love it!

I think it is absolutely amazing that archaeologists continue to find the same writings of the Bible we have today that go back 2500+ years. God said his word will be preserved.
Agree 👍 damn those skeptics n none believers. Do you
Sorry, there is not a single original draft of the Bible. Not anywhere. It doesn’t matter to believers, but no less true.
And Moses wrote about his own death and burial.

Brilliant piece of logic there, Simcha.
How can Moses be an illiterate while he grew up as a royal prince in the hands of the king of Egypt, are you telling us that Egyptians then are also illiterate ? Who writes for them?
Would God choose a prophet that is illiterate?
I like these older videos that he did where he tries to prove instead of disprove the Bible. Good job on this video.

When you read ANY book you get the perception of one voice. Yet, that author has read many other authors, gathers literary devices and "field study" on the subject, then passes it to one or more editors, etc.
So yeah, you guessed it, that "one voice" you hear when reading a book is your own voice interpreting it.
I love watching all the people complaining that he only believes what he wants to, when there is literal evidence at the end of the video.
@@davidburton6573 there is evidence that moses wrote the bible? really? there is concrete evidence of one-man-authorship even? nope. just re-watched the ending. there's not. c ya!
@@fernandorendon8618 It's general sense to assume one author unless proven otherwise. Until you can provide a single shred of evidence to the contrary of the assumed solo authorship that is claimed by the writings themselves, then it will remain as established fact that Moses wrote the books.
@@davidburton6573 ir never says in the books that moses is the author, and we know genesis 1 and 2 are different sources. We Also have translations, copies.... how can you asume 1 author for such a vast colection of books? Be a believer, its your right.
@@fernandorendon8618 Exodus 34:27
"Then the LORD said to Moses, 'Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.'"
It never says it ay? I guess you need to pick up your Bible again.
The Bible tells us who wrote the scriptures. They were written by Holy men of old as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
Therefore the true author is God. There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.
Yes the Bible has many riddles in it and I explain some of them on my channel.
There is no more original bible .lots of changes they made this people.

Unfortunately the majority of us cannot read the old testament in its original language, nor the new testament in its original languages so we must rely on qualified others to justly and truthfully analyse and judge for us. Much has been lost, and we will never know the full story.
As an archaeologist of the Ancient Near East I believe the Exodus is a tribal memory that goes back to the Late Bronze Age
See also my book; Tribal memories and the Confusing Numbers in the Old Testament
As a Prince of Egypt, and a member of the house of Pharaoh, it would be physically impossible for Moses to be illiterate.
Also during those days, why would God tell the people to write his words on their front doorposts if they were iliterate?!
Archeology is not the answer to all biblical history and some things will never be known for God's wisdom and knowledge is far greater than Man's
@vestiphobe They've found the drowned chariots and evidence of the drowned army of Pharoah. They've tracked the route that makes most sense given travel time & conditions.
@vestiphobe how do you know that Cain is not more intelligent than a neanderthal? And correction there are evidence that Moses did exist and one of those were mentioned in Egyptian texts.
Minoan civilization about 1200 bce even talked about the Egyptian persecuting Israelites during the exodus.
@@edilbertorivera3467 Interesting. Do you have a source for that?
God could clear all this up by speaking to the world but of course he stopped communicating with us conveniently after the bible was completed.
Has it been completed? They keep changing it to suit themselves! 🖐😂🖑

Old testament is actually comes from many messengers so its not possible to come from one writer
Yes
MY people who are the REAL HEBREWS, Yes, I AM Hebrew. We have always written down EVERYTHING.
The Torah has been distorted by ancient rabbis, they put their understanding into the Torah .
I would not say distorted by edited. They seems to think of themselfs as scribes of God so they could change / updated it.
@@eleandrocustodio If the Torah had come from God, no rabbi would dare change it, that would be unwise, which means that if they indeed changed it, it was because they were certain it did not come from God, it was written by men.
@@_John_P A Rabi wouldn't change it. But, a prophet would. Jeremiah, Ezequiel and many others saw themselves as someone that speaks in god's name. My personal theory is, someone had the mission of joining both versions (north and south) and at that time, these versions were already considered holy so they did the least change possible. Another point of view, jews are used to book with many point of views/voices (talmuld/zohar etc) but not us with greek, so for them these two versions are right or wrong for the editor.
I always wondered about the accuracy of the Old Testament until someone explained to me how the Jewish scribes do their checking. I doubted no longer! Yes, the pentateuch was clearly written by Moses. Many other authors wrote the rest of the Old Testament. Then the New Testament came along. Now that I understand how we know that is accurate too, I do not doubt it. (I'm not Jewish.)
No mate, the problem still remains unsolved. They are precise on copying the original source, no doubt, but the question is: who wrote the original source.
You fall for anything. Moses is Osmosis simply put.

If you guys don’t know by now that Eve wrote the Bible then I don’t know what to think about you ppl. She wrote the book 7 days after giving birth to the whole world.
She even wrote the lyrics to: He’s Got The Whole World In His Hands. Of course it was sung Arc-apella.
Good for you... 🌹🪔🦉✨
The are several examples of rewriting or harmonising in the Dead Sea Scrolls, e.g., Plate 5 4Q252, aligning the number of days the arc was a afloat to the 340 day Jewish year.
Ah yes, because the flood days changed, that means that there were multiple editors and that moses never wrote anything, of course.
Just because a scroll hasn't changed in 3500 years, doesn't mean that it was written by one author.
It's not even true. The Silver Scrolls, which are 2,600 years old, are written in the Palaeo-Hebrew alphabet, which is nothing like the Hebrew used in modern scripture. Only two brief passages have survived from the pre-exile period. That's hardly a basis to say anything about how content has evolved.
Actually there is another version of torah. Samaritan Torah. Samaritan torah is older than Jewish torah
None of the surviving Samaritan scrolls are terribly old. The Avishaʿ Scroll was written in the 14th century. Of course, texts from Biblical times can survive only in the form of a copy of a copy of a copy.
If the other authors were from the time of Moses, then nobody would give a shit who wrote it, they would know it's accurate no matter what.
Hey Simcha, love your videos and I like your style. Question what languages did Moses speak? Canaanite, Phenitiaan, Arab, Farsi, Biblical Hebrew, Standard Hebrew?
If I recall in the YT channel “Religion for Breakfast” they go deep into the earlier forms of what the scribes wrote. I believe it’s an early version of Hebrew/Aramaic.
@@carlosrios3215 good to know thank you!
A good scholar reviews the evidence and forms an opinion. This guy does the exact opposite.
Like Ehrman, when he started doing his research, turned his back to his past,became an atheist and a famous scolar.
Ehrman has personal reasons for being Agnostic in which my opinion aren’t strong enough. However, Erhman is a “show me the proof” type of guy. Simcha is more of a sensationalist rather than a researcher and tries to push his theories albeit entertaining.
@@carlosrios3215
Doesn't everyone has his personal reasons.
Every 10 years we have another new writer of the Holy of books and God 's use of Noah's ship paper to cleanse the poop deck of animal droppings. When the question is, "Who made the paper that God used to wipe his black hole on ??? " ANOTHER question is, when exactly did he create his son as his exact image ???
Within the span of 30 seconds this dude goes from talking about being scientific to declaring he is going to force his preconceived notion to be true.
Simcha's method is to try & prove his own preconceived ideas. his docs are entertaining, but I wouldn't bet the farm on his conclusions.
Hahaha typical atheist
Anyone who thinks that doesn't go for anybody on any subject is naive.
"Hyuk hyuk I am just following the evidence where it must lead."
-says the idiot unaware of his bias.
Because science is about truth. Until you ask if it is true then it is about falsification.
(Science is good, not being sarcastic)
Science, it is SO........sciency
@alvinpetrovitch13 You are supposed to try to prove if a hypothesis is correct, not force it to be correct.
Bible is composed of many books by different prophets even after moses. So there are many author. You can include the apostles of the Lord too. So there are many authors.
Not that bible, the other one.

I was right.
All known versions at that time were burnt at the end off the nicæan councill, and they were given the New to take with them home
The Nicean council did no such thing. Their only goal was to come to an agreement on the nature of Christ.
It is always a good idea to thoroughly research an idea before you make a public comment.
That's not even remotely close to reality. What the hell kind of acid were you on, because that's some next level stupid.
40 holy men over the course of 1500
year in different parts of the world wrote but the was moved by the holy spirit as they was writing it
40 authors wrote the Bible over a period of 1,500 years. These Bible writers wrote as they were inspired by the Holy Spirit (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17).
This guy is the most biased and, therefore, one of the worst, archaeologists I've ever even heard of. His ideas are full of unfounded assertions and presuppositions. Hint: Moses was not a real person. And the Exodus never happened.
He is Jewish and not a professional archaeologist, but holding a hypothesis and going out to test it does not make him biased, that's the process of confirmation or refutation.
@@_John_P : The title is "The Naked Archaeologist" so he is presenting himself as if he's an archaeologist. And his bias comes in when he is dismissing the experts by saying things like "well I only hear one voice". He also draws many non sequitur conclusions which make absolutely NO sense. Like when one person said the vast majority of people 2K +years ago were illiterate (fact) yet he finds primitive cave writings and concludes "People could read and write back then"..
@@_John_P : Not to mention that there is a consensus among religious scholars and archaeologists, even in Israel, who agree that Moses is a fictional character and that the Exodus never even happened. Yet he doesn't even touch on that point.

@@justabill5780 If the consensus is built in the absence of evidence, then the position is weak. The position only becomes strong if evidence of the actual origin of the myth is found, until then, the position of truth is stating that so far there isn't enough evidence to claim either way.

In the Old Testatment it states that the Holy Spirit came upon the men who wrote parts of the Bible; therefore, the Bible only has 1 Author. I remember Father Malachi Martin spoke on this as well when being interviewed in the 1990s by Art Bell. What he said was true but so many in the Catholic Church has lost their faith and so they are confused. As a Christian myself I believe that these authors truly had the Holy Spirit come upon them to write down the words of God. With that said, people who believe in the supernatural will tell you they believe the same thing and have seen some weird things in their lifetime and that is why they believe.
do you remember what number interview it was?
if this is the case than why would there be discrepancies. The holy spirit would not make the mistake of different versions of the same story, and the other mistakes in it. That doesn't make sense.

Simcha Jacobovici thank you very much for this documentary because i discovered that the book in my possession is the same of the Original Bible you exposed.
Moses is an Egyptian name meaning born of water leading to the conclusion that Moses was an Egyptian and likely had some connection to the cult of Akhenaten grandson of Thutmoses. Akhenaten invented monotheism and cast the money hangers out of the temple. All aspects of Hebrewism and Christianity trace back to and were copies of Egyptian spirituality. I respect the opinions of the archeologist with all things but blind faith.

The scriptures were written by ancient Hebrews inspired by the most high,,it contains the Laws,,statutes and commandments that the hebrews was commanded to obey and live in accordance with,,it was meant for them to teach this to the world but by them disobeying the most high they were cursed and this paved the way for the enslavement of a nation of people (the true Jews of Israel) which were scattered from one nation to another,,this was meant not only for ancient Israel but the bloodline. This is how the scriptures were re-written,,times,,people and certain books were removed to ensure that the enslavement would last for times and the people would forget who they are and where they come from,,this still holds many in bondage today..
The stories predate the Hebrew by up to many thousands of years, some even predating Akad & Sumer.
The Hebrew have replaced the name of the various victors of early conquests, genocide & slavery with their themselves, adding it to the time before themselves mixed with their own Canaanite history which preceeded that of Hebrew.
The original stories were not Semetic Arab Tribal stories, but were adopted by them.
Seems to me that the early Torah was a compilation of oral traditions finally written down and that after that was done great effort was made to duplicate it as reasonably as possible.
I get the vibe that the scholar simcha was talking to in this interview was anti Semitic so ignorant ShAlom brother keep up Gods work adoni is using you for showing fact
Before Mose was born in Egypt. The Flood story was already written on Wedge clay tablets(cuneiform) writing which exist before scroll writings. The story of Flood is found in the Epic of Gilgamesh. Genesis stories were loan borrowed by scribes who wrote down what they have seen, heard in Mesopotamia literature, poem, incarnation, hymn etc.
You should look more into the flood and the Bible version. Think about it this way, if I search nothing but biblical perspective stories of the flood the. That’s all il find if I search nothing but contradictory stories of the Bible then guess what I will find :) you guessed it. You surround yourself with what you want to believe. You think because you looked into the epic of Gilgamesh if you looked at all the writings then more power to you. But you need to look at the whole picture because you will see what you want to see.
Why is he anti Semitic just because he offered a view on the Torah.. ? Ur logic is warped.
@@Markerface
What is the whole picture ? The story of the flood is also found in the Vedas and the Sumerian texts..
Peter wrote: "For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake moved by the Holy Ghost." If you do not believe that, then the Bible is worthless to you. I have seen more than enough in the Scriptures to know that Peter is telling the Truth. God wrote the Bible, through men, from Genesis to Revelation.

Moses : " I wrote the bible."

My question would be , why didn,t jesus write?
Because he is Gods son and he only came to accomplish one thing and that was to die for you and for me so we could be forgiven. Not to write.
And because he is our savior he is to be witnessed and not to witness like all the writers did. He doesn't need to write he "did". So ppl wrote about him.
Jesus did not write because He was busy giving speeches, feeding people, healing people, teaching, etc.

IMO it's silly to disregard the suggestion that at least the J and E sections, and rest of the Torah were not by different people. And he didn't even prove that P and D were the same, just that if compiled, it occurred prior to what was previously thought. Even if P & D were the same, that still doesn't prove anything about J and E. I think he just chose his position because it made for an entertaining piece of film.
It's a hypothesis that he was trying to confirm or refute, and it turned out that the evidence on the contrary was not very strong, so he walked away without knowing the answer and stating that much more time will be required for archaeology to settle the matter.
See Umbreto Cassuto on the documentary hypothesis.
The guy whom he is interviewing says that history is fiction, that alone should tell you the type of opinions and misconceptions he is going to have.
Ha ha I was thinking the same. However, I guess he could have worded it better.

He said, history is a form of a fiction. History is a version of facts that historian wants to write.

It’s no secret that man has taken it upon himself to include or exclude information as he sees fit. It was then interpreted several different ways. There has also been stories on cave walls that were the same as the Bible only the character names have changed, the information was dated thousands of years before the Bible.
If my friend Jack kills a deer, and I relay the information as "John killed a deer" it doesn't mean the event is false, simply I got a variable wrong. All you're proving is that the people writing on cave walls were trash at remembering names, but that the events were factual.
Exactly and this, actually unholy, book has been manipulated and rewritten information taken from the Sumerians and others.
Great REAL theologian scholar here on YT is Paul Anthony Wallis.
The stories of the "torah" were also in the Sumerian tablets - so were drawn from pre-history.
If you study enough of the Sumerian tablets , you will realize that Abraham came out of Sumerian life with a totally different religion and started a new way of worship based on a large portion of Sumerian religion. Many parts of the Jewish worship is exactly the same as Sumerian believe. You need to go alot deeper than modern believe.
theres more truth in hindu scripts,they actually say,we were born from aliens,that war,ed over earth for its posession,as it had minerals they needed.south african gold mines,,plus,,they smelted mercury..these were used for radiation protection,electrical curcuits,fuel,.NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD OR RELIGION,,the pyramids were power generators,not for burials..they left us to fend for ourselves,so,we,created religion,then killed millions of ourselves in its name..yes,,we are a dumb species...
I believe you misspelled "The Events of the Torah were verified by other cultures such as the Sumerians, giving them even more credibility."
@@davidburton6573 Thank you for taking the time to reply.
Why is it so hard to accept that the books of the bible are nothing but books of history & rewritten & passed down . By Ancient Civilizations.
That's why christianity is a corrupted religion the only preserved one is Islam

I found this so interesting. Thank You for all the information.
The Jews don’t know about the tomb of Moses , How they claim to know everything by all the details about the prophets from Abraham till now ?
The Bible states that God hid his body so the people wouldn't worship Him and now you worship the Roman Pagan God Jesus
I appreciate your videos however the One author theory is so easily disproved. Moses could not have written it all. Not only is moses refered to in the third person but his death and what happened after his death is in the books he supposedly wrote himself, that doesnt add up, any way you cut it there were multiple authors unles moses wrote from the grave
Ever considered Moses wrote it. (Very possible)
And then it was copied and updated by the scribes?
There IS evidence and record that scribes made copies. And evidence of the updated parts could be considered clear by the text being changed to first person or third person by the scribes making it obvious. Or adding historical tidbits, such as recording the death of the author into the timeliness of the story.
Also, Moses WAS said to be bodily resurrected. It has deep theological purpose and intention for the future resurrection from the dead. When many who sleep in the dust shall be raised. Some to everlasting life and some to everlasting condemnation.
How does any of that disprove any of the idea of Moses writing the books? We see SEVERAL times in the Bible, people writing about events years, sometimes CENTURIES after their deaths, why is this ONE TIME suddenly put into doubt. It's commonplace to write in both 1st and 3rd person, only if he wrote in 2nd person would it be a problem.
Joshua is say to write about his Death and what happen after. He wrote it in a lot of places third person because God told him what to say to the people and also what God say to him'
I agree that there was no single author and that Moses probably did not write the Bible...but it is possible to write in the third-person as Julius Caesar did in his Gallic Commentaries.
Just because one can prove good quality control all the way to the 2nd century BC to present, and partially to the 6th century. That doesn’t mean it was faithfully copied from 12th century BC.
It is possible, but it’s not provable completely. It may be that the full composition and process of quality control came within that time. Many things can happen in a thousand years.
God wrote a minor books , that number is zero , Christopher Hitchens
I understand the "God" part. I believe. And I know the Holy Spirit moved people to write what they did. Don't tell me David knew the Romans would start crucifying people centuries ahead of him in time. He didn't know what he was writing.
@Mike Zielinski I’m not sure what you mean, other than his arrival. Because the Bible is full of failed prophecy. Prophecy was most often a leverage tool. Do this, and he will do this.
@Mike Zielinski Jonah 3 4 And Jonah began to enter the city on the first day’s walk. Then he cried out and said, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!”
Shall be...not "may be" over thrown.
10 Then God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God relented from the disaster that He had said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it.
Prophecy is words from a prophet, a spokesman for God. I think you just don't want it to be true, because you might be an idiot Calvinist.
@Mike Zielinski So you have no reply to the failed prophecy posted? A liar too…
41 different authors have written the Bible The book you have today was rewritten by King Henry the V111 who changed the wording to suit him so he could remarry. Also King James..who was also quite mad.
Basically copied from the Sumerian book of the dead. Gene-sis is a definite copy from the occult spell book
I think we are up to about ten deity who were born of a virgin on the 25th of December(deca means ten)
Very Good!..
The Question! "Who wrote the Bible"? Many people throughout the Centuries
It is better to know the truth to avoid impersement when we discuss such subjects with non-believers or people from any other faith.
Christianity doesn't need the Dead Sea Scrolls to prove the good teaching it comes with and the good manners it ask people to follow and use in their earthy life.
This is what we should emphasize and focus on. Leaving anything that make us lairs and not trust worthy.
Up to now many still don't believe the existence of God
I sure miss this show..?!!
Me too!!! I love this guy!!!
All ten of the ten commandments existed in the "Egyptian Book of the Dead" long before the story of Moses. Please Explain!
The predominant oral transmission is not mentioned at all!
Daniel Paulson And it has been shown that it is very easy to manipulate stupid people which is why we have such a huge religious body of ignorant people who want to kill all us atheists.
@@fm-on1qq That's why there are no dates in the Bible.
@Chait Singh The earliest historical record of the existence of any Hebrew is around the 10th - 11th century BCE according to Wikipedia. So when did God bless Abraham? If it was somewhere about this time, then there were already millions of other men and women living on this planet God created. Does anyone truly believe that Abraham was so "morally superior" to everybody else that he deserved God's interest and love over all the rest? Such a ridiculous concept.
@Chait Singh I absolutely agree! I came from a very long lineage of the Catholic faith. I have cousins that have served the church as priest and nuns. It does not go over well when I question this long heritage. However, even at an early age I could not accept much of what the church was teaching. The old testament just does not hold up to scrutiny. I have problems with much of the new testament as well.
The first five books (Torah) of the Bible were taken from the Sumerian clay tablets which were taken from the Epic of Gilgamesh!

I assume given you dislike the Bible, you've never considered it being the inverse, or that the Sumerians were simply recording the same events the Hebrews observed and were told of from their Deity. You never considered either of those I assume.

Noah is equal to Berosos. Kronos warns Sisithrus / Zinsudra / of the flood. He lets go of a pigeon with its muddy feet coming back. These scams raged during the Hasmonean dynasty. Look for the writings of Berosos and Manethon. For days, I could list where and what your torah cheats, but what if you looked it up? If you get stuck I'll be happy to help.
I love the Bible! But the truth is the truth! God didn't write the Bible... inspired men did. The account in the Sumerian Clay tablets (older) is much much longer and fuller than that in the Bible as we know it today! Do the research! It doesn't lessen the truth of the Bible in any way howeer!
Not one serious scholar in the world thinks that the Hebrew Bible is just first five Books of Moses
Interesting
Im converting right now to Judaism ive fallen love with my community I Would love to be a sefer scribe and dedicate my life to Torah. I'm learning Hebrew now and are costumes and ite been the. Most beautiful journey of my life im 26 from California happy Chanaka Simcha Chanaka Simach
The New Testament all of those texts so the New Testament it's all written in ancient Greek, what you call the Old Testament, which is said to be written in Hebrew is a Greek text that's written in the 3rd Century it's a hellenistic text called the Septuagint, now called the Torah or the Old Testament, but it’s not in original Hebrew text.
The Septuagint is the Greek Old Testament, it's the oldest form that we've got, The whole big deal about the Dead Sea Scrolls was it was said, we finally have some Hebrew but, Hebrew is only an 8,000 word ancient language. Hebrew With an 8,000 unique word count language. The Dead Sea Scrolls were all in Hebrew the Dead Sea Scrolls were fragments in Hebrew and fragments in Greek and everybody assumed oh this is the original in Hebrew right because now we're following church history, in that there was an original Hebrew text of the Old Testament but there wasn't, it doesn't exist and when you show people the Greek now what's the proof what's the proof the proof is when you read the septuagint that is the Greek Old Testament. It does not read as a translation it reads as an original, it uses Greek idiom, it's like a fingerprint on a language and it's Greek.
How can you tell it read Greek fingerprints? How do you discern the difference between an original or a translation?
It's easy to tell because colloquialisms don't translate and so it's like tagging it, you're testing this language to see what its age is. So you tag it with certain identifiers, and one of them is colloquialisms, the other one is technical vocabulary. You cannot translate from a lower technical degree or a median technical degree to a higher technical degree. You can go down the slope, you can take something that's not technical and make it more technical. You can force it, but you can't drift Upstream, so the original is going to have the highest degree of technicality. And yes, the Dead Sea Scrolls were not the highest degree of technical writing, they were lower than the Greek. The Old Testament in Hebrew is a back translation from the previous Greek Septuagint.
To not know your history is to be amnesiac. I mean, if you met a person who couldn't tell you where they were from 1970 to 80 you would define them as a fairly damaged person but how many people do you meet who can tell you where western civilization was between 900 and 1600? People don't know. So, since they don't know, they can be fed any shit that is out there, they don't know, they have no idea.
So, the way to gain power is to reclaim a command of history. Like for instance, I remember when the vietnam war was breaking out and I was in school at the University of California in Berkeley and and the Professor said we all have to read Thucydides we all have to read about the war against Syracuse which was in Sicily and how it destroyed greek democracy and how it allowed the ascendancy of the dictatorship of the "Thirty".
Because the Athenian citizenry could not understand the war aims because the Athenian leadership didn't understand clearly what the warrings were. All the mistakes of the Vietnam War were repeated, or occurred in this war which was fought well before the year zero. But you tell most people to read Thucydides and they just give you a strange look well it's not because we want be obscurantists or we want to carry on conversations like Cambridge intellectuals, it's because we want to know what to do with the future and the first thing you do with the future: is you don't make the stupid mistakes that were made in the past.

Whoever wrote the Bible must have had a great deal of imagination. It's a compilation of different stories and different versions without knowing that it will endure and pass the test of time.
They borrowed from much ancient cultures and compiled whatever material they came across in several parchments, eventually found and converted into a bible. It could be that most of the material was indeed compiled by a single dedicated author and then other people collected and stitched it together in a five volumes work, but also incorporating small contributions from others.
What’s crazy is that if you look at it you can see a string that goes from the book of genesis to revelation. All completely goes together it would be hard to have something like that if they where compiled of different stories borrowed from different religions. Haha what a crazy coincidence.
Didn’t the Romans compile a series of stories to, get a God belief of all its conquests. This got the people controlled by threat of Death , if you said you did not believe inJesus or his Father , GOD, all powerful and fearful, ! Burnt at the stake, beheaded. Many ways to enforce belief . Control is now the agenda of the Wealthy classes, as before, World and unity of all Humans.
It maybe the way forward for our survival or further enslavement. If it takes us out of Greed and ego of the super rich, for genuine Humanity’s sake, it would allow us toAdvance to a civilised non parasitical creature.,
The bible is a hidden spiritual allegory full of analogy, metaphor, Hyperbole, idioms, similies, parables, etc.
@@Markerface Homer created the Iliad from many different stories circulating in his day. He altered many of them. and sometimes had to choose between conflicting versions of the same story. Yet do you believe the Iliad does not read as 'a string' that goes together?
Your searching for truth, this video isnt going to provide it. The bible was written by 35 recognized writers, centuries apart. From kings to fishermen as inspired by One author who is clearly outside the realm of time. Over 1000 predictions, having come to pass with such precision, many scholars conclude the books were written after the facts. Irrefutable evidence points to otherwise. 66 traditional books that set absolute standards for every principle and precept mankind would face during his time on earth. All relevant to every generation. It gives direction on how to navigate through the an individuals life, while facing forces beyond the physical realm governed by time.
The bible opens with the introductiof The Realm of Time, when time began. Its Author identifies Himself as G-D. He dwells in a realm outside of time. As physical humans beings, we cannot grasp that, what that's like; we are timed creatures, made of body, soul and spirit. Our existence is to excersize the unique right of choice, given no nothing else in creation. The purpose of life to freely choose who we will serve. We can choose satan, a fallin being and his followers, who were not given choice but in a fraction of a second was casted out of G-Ds kingdom for disobedience, or we choose to follow GD. Our lives unfold to make this choice. Seeing our mortal weaknesses, G-D sent a Saviour, his Name , Jesus.
At the end of The Realm of Time, for in this realm all things are temporal. Our spirit and soul were created to go back to G-D, where our choice in this life will be weighted. A G-D of absolute perfect order, possessing all wisdom, knowledge. Understanding and power, will finalize our choice with the reward of eternal life with Him, or eternal life with satan where G-D, who created satan will sentence him to a place described as eternal torment; hell.
Note: 1/3 of Angel's, now demons followed satan. G-D has total power and authority over satan.
We were created in G-D's image.
The Realm of Time has by default a begining and end. The bible walks its readers thru it.
sounded good any how but I will go out on a limb and say know one of this time knows an will never know just pure speculation at any rate I digress
Dude I’m so happy this is just you’re opinion 😅 like WTF is wrong with some human beings 🤦🏻♀️ this ideology you have it’s horrible, and I feel so sorry for people like you who live with these things on their minds! And when you say serve..... are you implying that we are someone’s slaves? I mean how degrading for human beings! We are all that exist! Why can’t everyone just agree so that we can finally move on to better things 😩 fighting over spirits and gods will get us nowhere!!! I’m so so sad I had to be born in this era of dummies!!!!
Don't feel sorry for me, right or wrong, I've got nothing to loose. You on the other hand, if that old book is true, I'd be concerned, on the wrong side puts you at a great disadvantage. Eternity is a long time!
IFFFFF I was to be wrong (evidence on my favor luckily) but if I was to be wrong I would NOT follow the god of any book of any religion regardless, I do not know if you have actually read your Bible.... I have never in my life thought that the god I once believed in could do such atrocities and be so terribly dumb to leave 0 evidence and have “HIS” people fighting about wether or not he is real! He doesn’t sound very smart to me at all and I would assume a god is an intelligent being. With that said I wouldn’t be surprised if he burned me in hell for eternity for something that isn’t even my fault 🤷🏻♀️ why? Because he’s a SAVAGE!!! Letter by letter SAVAGE! If a human being was to do the things he commanded certain characters in the Bible today they would literally get either life in jail or the lethal injection. I feel relived that these things cannot be true and aren’t true! I have done nothing but good to the people around me, and even to people I don’t even know without going into details about it cause I don’t really care.. everything I’ve done, are doing, and will continue to do for as long as I’m alive I do it for my fellow human being! Not because there is a hell and I’m being threatened to do good. we are here today and we should all take care of each other for a better world, but it’s up to us! And I do feel sorry, because while some people are busy searching for our truths so that we can have a better understanding of who we are and what we can do to better our world, unfortunately a very large portion remains in la la land living to die .. searching for eternity, talking to a “spirit” that doesn’t seem to be answering anything or helping in anything at all. All we have, again, is ourselves. Good luck to you, and I hope you find enlightenment one day from the bottom of my heart, because believing that millions of people will burn for eternity and living with this psychosis in your mind isn’t good or healthy for non. ❤️🌎
I am a individual of principle, yes I have read the Bible for myself. I have also studied other religions. I found it way too coincidental for 7 class of animals representing millions of individual species to all come to the same point at the same time. The fish found in the Marianne Trench have the same basic viscera make up as an elephant or a frog. All fit perfectly. The dinosaurs even had everything. So where did all come from? Evolution? Millions of animals and plants all over the world just grew from some micro organism, didn't believe that. One night I was sitting on a wall, when looked up and asked if your G-D, you can hear me. Show yourself to me, because I don't believe in you. I've heard about about you, but I can't see you, I can't hear you. Show me how real you are.
I spent another 7 years looking into non biblical resources regarding Jesus. Here again, if your real, come into my life, I don't believe in you. Show me, ME, just how "real" you are.
If I'm right remember this. Remember this; the time is coming when One World order will take effect. Do not get any mark, image or number of one who will rule the world. The Bible' s predictions have never failed, you just don't know about them. Strongly recommend you give some consideration to what has proven itself to be true generation after generation. Start with just asking to show himself to you.
When listening to a man, such as the above scholars, who claims he knows, always remember: An expert is a man or woman who generally states opinions as facts.
The scrolls may be the same but the people have changed drastically. "Africans have always been an integral part of Israel's landscape. In fact, Israel itself, being geologically situated as it is on the African tectonic plate, is a part of Africa." From Afro Semitic to pure Euro gentile... Fascinating.
The land is called Canaan and it is not in Africa.
I mean, we know genesis came the epic of gilgamesh so.....
it would seem like it but the reality is the epic of gilgamesh was from that flood written after so many years after the invention of writing was made... when the noah's flood happened writing wasn't invented yet.
@@SUPER_BOUY The epic of gilgamesh likely predates the invention of writing. Since its original form was transmitted orally through song. The epic is still told through song throughout the area. The empire of sumer predates everything in the area, it could be even older, since we know know thanks to gobekli tepi, organized religion predates settled civilations. Its likely that elements of the tradition came all the way down from hunter gatherer eras.
scribes counted the words they wrote in order to b paid properly . the thinking described in all of this mans programs proove nothing but his belief and willingness to persuade others of it
No archaeological evidence for the documentary hypothesis, yet so many people believe it just to disregard Gods Word by Moses.
MOSES AND THE BURNING BUSH;> YOU BURNED THE WRONG BUSH !!!;> THAT'S MY CANNABIS !!!;> OPS !!!
Moses burned it slowly... and inhaled it through a pipe.. and then his imagination ran wild! 🖐😂🖑
He was lied to, the dead sea scrolls do have differences. Some words in the Isaiah scroll are plural where today we have those words as singular. And vise a versa. There are several instances.... And yes the meaning is changed by those instances!
Cuneiform is older still.
Possibly less than 100 Israelites knew how to read and write...from the million +/-
people who fled Egypt.
Those original text look no more and in 200 years old and it's supposed to be 2000 I've seen 50 year old comic books that look older than that
Your point? You can't take care of books for shit, and the ancient hebrews can.
