Who Wrote The Bible?

---

"For over two thousand years it was assumed that Moses was the author of the Torah - the first five books of the Old Testament. Over past centuries a few individuals were bold enough to question this assumption, based on contradictions in the narrative and different writing styles found in the text. The person or persons who compiled the Bible took different versions of stories and combined them. Friedman attempts to sort out the multiple authors and editors behind the Pentateuch, identifying four main sources and even naming individuals such as Jeremiah and Ezra for some roles. His purpose is not to debunk the Bible but to solve the puzzle of its complex authorship, presenting the findings in an accessible way that combines theology, history, and literature".
