The first Temple was constructed some 400 years before Nebuchadnezzar ultimately destroyed it in 587 BC. the date that something is collated necessitates that there be a pre existing collection of writings. Mars claims that the OT was written in Alexandria only a couple of hundred years before Christ and that the whole thing is a rip off of Egyptian mythology of that time. Of course he also thinks that Napoleon is sending him secret messages through his pet hamster. Go figure...

Most of the old testament fantasy doesn't really get faked into existence till far after Babylon, they were worshipping several gods & goddesses before that, the over 400 fertility statues have been found all over Jerusalem testify to that. Its not till Ezra after 500BC that these myths get cobbled together & the establishment of the righteous 'pure' & ethnically cleansed. There was a movement that last for centuries following this as they piled the bullshit higher & deeper who were the pure ones & whos bullshit was truer, most of the sane ones didn't even come back & stayed in Babylon or elsewhere rather than deal with these holy nimrods that were always wreaking havoc over Jerusalem. Especially the marriage laws that disallowed marrying any foreign women (these nimrods were all about ' ethnic purity', how ironic.) Ezra (480–440 BC), en.wikipedia.org *The* *Book of Ezra* *describes how he led a group of* *Judean exiles* *living in* *Babylon* *to their home city of* *Jerusalem* *(Ezra 8.2-14) where he is said to have enforced observance of the* *Torah* *and to have cleansed the community of mixed marriages*
