This book presents a novel theory on the authorship and dating of the biblical texts ascribed to the Hebrew prophets. The author challenges the widely accepted view that these texts originated in the 8th century BCE, arguing instead that they were composed much later, during the 2nd century BCE, in response to the Maccabean Revolt against Greek rule in Judea. Through a close analysis of the texts, the author demonstrates how the prophets' messages align with the historical events of this period, particularly the struggle for religious freedom and national independence. This groundbreaking work challenges traditional assumptions about the Bible, offering a fresh perspective on the origins and significance of these influential texts.
