Why Does One Account Of The Flood Say It Lasted Forty Days, While Another Records No Less Than One Hundred? And Why Do Some Stories Reflect The History Of Southern Judah, While Others Seem Sourced From Northern Israel? Originally Published In 1987, Richard Friedman's Who Wrote The Bible? Joins A Host Of Modern Scholars Who Show That The Pentateuch Was Written By At Least Four Distinct Voices--Separated By Borders, Political Alliances, And Particular Moments In History--Then Connected By Brilliant Editors Rather Than Cast Doubt Onto The Legitimacy Of The Bible, Friedman Uses These Divergent Accounts To Illuminate A Text That Was Written By Real People Friedman's Seminal And Bestselling Text Is A Comprehensive And Authoritative Answer To The Question: Just Who Exactly Wrote The Bible?
