  The Study does not prove the historicity of the stories in the Book of Exodus, for instance. It only suggests that there could be manuscripts before the Babylonian siege because there was literacy, but, as we can observe, different and contradictory stories were compiled to form the first five books of the Bible.

  For instance, it is believed that the story of Genesis in which the world is created in 6 days was invented to support the theological doctrine about the Sabbath. The same seems to be happened with some other doctrines, they were placed as received by Moses, in the book of Exodus, so as to support later policies invented by scribes.

  I think that some stories of the OT came from periods before the Babylonian siege, however, they were tampered and edited by the scribes in the time of Ezra. And of course, the book of Daniel is a forgery of the second century before Christ.

  My sister denounced the two elders

  yesterday my sister presented, against the two stalker elders, a complaint before the district prosecutor.

  the prosecutor said to my sister that in the country there are freedom of religion, so it is totally illegal to accuse a person loudly in the street before her neighbors , and to insist for going to a illegal judicial questioning.

  she even showed to the prosecutor a past notification in which she asked to the elders a written document specifying the charge of apostasy so as to attend the judiciary meeting with her attorney.

  Yes, the elder book she has (In Spanish), is a printed copy of that which was published in internet by "apostate" friends.

  This the 2010 edition of "Shepherd the Flock of God". This would be useful in case they deny before the prosecutor the existence of the judiciary meeting.

The prosecutor said to my sister that in the country there are freedom of religion, so it is totally illegal to accuse a person loudly in the street before her neighbors , and to insist for going to a illegal judicial questioning. She even showed to the prosecutor a past notification in which she asked to the elders a written document specifying the charge of apostasy so as to attend the judiciary meeting with her attorney. She told him that the elders never answered that notification. The prosecutor said that, of course, they avoided it because that judiciary meeting is illegal. So, the next week the two elders will be questioned by the prosecutor before my sister.

  My sister simply does not want to write a letter of disassociation and she also does not want to be stalked by the elders in the street. She just want to live in peace and to get out of his apartment every morning so as to go to her job without any molestation. She also told to the prosecutor that she was a Jehovah's witness for 40 years, but some years ago she discovered many ethical contradictions, so for this reason she does not want to attend those religious meetings .

  The next week, with the elders and the prosecutor, my sister wants to show to the prosecutor some portions of the book of the elders (Could she do it even when this book is forbidden?).

  The two elders threaten my sister again

  as i reported here in this forum, some time ago, my sister was constantly harried by two elders so as to be submitted to a judiciary committee for apostasy.

  these two elders were constantly hounding her in the street when she walks to go to her job.

  so she had to send them a notary letter in which she wrote that she would attend the judiciary committee only with her attorney.

  Thanks for the advices. ...Indeed, my sister has recently informed me, that she does not attend the meetings since more than three years ago (I thought it was two years). Before that, the elders were visiting her due to her frequent absences in the Kingdom Hall. So she showed them that she knew TTATT, through many past Watchtower documents. So she has clearly said to the elders that she believes no more in the Governing Body. They can disfellowship her if they want, instead they prefer to stalk her in the street.

  I now know the reason for this new persecution against my sister. The fact is that there is a young sister (35 years old) in the congregation that has been talking with my sister, so she is knowing TTATT due to my sister.

  According to my sister, this young sister has been discussing with her mother (who is a fanatic witness). So, some months ago, her mother approached my sister in the street so as to forbid any talk with her daughter. This woman is very stupid and crazy, because her daughter has 35 years old. Furthermore, this mother is pressing the elders so as to take an action. This explains the reason why they are stalking my sister again, although she does not attend any meeting since two years.

  This young sister has said to the elders that she will remain in the organization due to her family, but she does not want to preach in the street.

  My sister has told me that one of the elders shouted her in the street so as to ensure that she must go to the judiciary meeting the next Monday. So she will report this fact to the police.

  My sister wants to live in peace, but she does not want to give any letter of disassociation. She is also thinking that she should also propagate this fact to the media. There is a local Radio where one can report publicly any grievance. May be she could also write a letter to some Journal so as to expose this case.

  Thanks for the advice....indeed, these things are happening because my sister lives in South America (I don't want to tell which country), where the police despises these actions. However, she must do something with her attorney.

  If she were in US, where the LAW works better, the advice of "Village Idiot" would work.
