Dating the Pentateuch and Israel in Egypt
Is there good evidence and reason to believe in the early dating of the Pentateuch and for Israel in Egypt? Here I give some of the reasons to think so.
People either argue for an Early (usually pure eyewitness accounts) or Late (the majority of Jewish history before the exile was made up during the exile).
Why does it seem rare for someone to argue that the texts may have undergone their final edits around the time of the exile but existed for centuries before that?
