    Is it true that most scholars think that Deuteronomy was in fact written during the reign of King Josiah, to support his program reviving worship at the temple?

    bigboi,

    That would put it well after Moses' time, wouldn't it? About 400 years AFTER the time of Moses. Let's not mince about a few decades here. We are talking HUNDREDS of years after Moses.

    That was my point!

    Always nice to read your comments, bigboi.

    Thanks Fark,

    I saw a program on tv, that mentioned that some scholars believe, that the book of Deut, was the lost book of the law that was "discovered" during the renovation of the temple.

    Just thought I'd mention that the word of the day is THAT. The above post was one co-starring the aforementioned.

    Great post, Fark.

    I am a Christian but see no need to consider the OT as anything other than Hebrew myth--not even as interesting or creative as Greek or Roman myth for that matter.

    Much of the NT is suspect too.
