Quote:J. Alberto Soggin writes: "While the Hebrew and Christian tradition tended to attribute the greater part of the Psalter to the pen of David, critical Introduction from the end of the last century and the first decades of this has taken the opposite course: in his commentary, B. Duhm argued that it was no longer a question of asking whether there were any psalms from the Maccabaean period, but rather of asking whether there were any earlier than this period, and the authority which his opinion enjoyed is amply demonstrated by the support given to it by R. H. Pfieffer's Introduction and by the indecision of that of A. Lods.As Finkelstein and others have pointed out there is no indication of any great degree of literacy in 10th century Judah....which seems to have been a piss-poor region of goat/sheep herders with a sprinkling of miserable little villages.
