But a documentary I watched at Larned said that the Jews didn't even begin writing the bible until after their exile by Babylon, so how could Moses have written the first five books if the bible didn't even start until years later when Babylon fucked their shit up? Or did they mean that was when the books, already written, were included in a single structure called the bible?
No, there were simply religious heads with popularity who took popular myth and incorporated the myths into their stories to incorporate a false sense of credibility into their propaganda.
