What Happened to the Ancient Traditions of the People?

In Exodus, different parts of Israel may have written down different traditions and told the stories a little bit differently. The editor didn't really think of it as an interruption, he thought of it as, well, I'm just going to put this here because I think it's meaningful and it needs to be said and I have to put it somewhere. If you look at 714, again, this is a little bit too much detail if you're listening in the car, but 714 picks up on the action where 6-1 left off, and that ferro is hard hard.
