Whether it is Jewish or Christian interpretation of that book is irrelevant to the dating of the original text and it is misleading to a discussion over its roots to discuss how different religions interpret that same text.
What does it change? It increases the probability the accounts are fictional, but by no means disproves anything.
So whats your point? Is there supposed to be a single piece of evidence that destroys religion? No, its done by pointing out all the little inaccuracies and chipping away at the base until its weakness and empty core is exposed.
Man you guys are all under the assumption that you are the smartest there by the first to ever come up with the obvious answer.
This point has been made and shot down by everyone except the op.
Short answer the Jews have different time lines than the traditional christians. Which put the genesis of the book of Genesis in the Hands of aberham rather than Moses, which can make the work about 1500 years or so older than than the OP's efforts to date the work. (Based on 1000 year old tradition of the roman catholic church)
The fact that the beginings of the work Moses named Genesis were first penned down by Aberham/Abramwould refute another claim that God can only speak Hebrew. Because Aberham was not the only Hebrew speaking person of his time. abram branched off of his father's nomadic tribe when God told him he would take him to a promised land.
Then I posted a link on Archeology.com that put the destomication of camels about 2000 years before what the OP claimed. After three unanswered challenges I assumed the OP could not or simply would not refute what has been contested..
