[Bible] Episode 277: Pete Enns - Pete Ruins Genesis (Part 1)
The Bible For Normal People
Historical Context in Genesis
Similarities between elements in Genesis and historical observations do not make the Book of Genesis a historical account. For example, Abraham's migrations align with archaeological nomadic movements, but that does not validate the historical accuracy of the Abraham story. The author of Genesis could have integrated old oral traditions into the narrative, creating a historical novel with fictional characters and events. Just because a story mentions real cities and customs does not mean it is a factual account.
