    Calibinflorida, no I did not realize some Jews knew these stories were not thier own. The ones I have spoken too seam to believe the old testament was about them and thier special place in history. Thanks for the insite.

    Not a problem. You will find that among Jews there is a wide spectrum of beliefs, but critical scholarship does reign supreme upon many of us. Generally only Orthodox Jews hold such literal beliefs, but you will find even theirs differs from the type of Fundamentalist view of Bible-only Christians.

    Nope.

    Moses and Joshua just gave him writer's credit.
