Expert Historian PROVES Moses Was INVENTED 4th Century BCE

Descripción:

Dr. Gad Barnea is not your typical Bible scholar—he’s reshaping how we view ancient Judaism and the Hebrew Bible, tackling one of its core assumptions: that Moses and his story are older than the 4th century BCE. As a Lecturer in Jewish History and Biblical Studies at the University of Haifa and a Research Fellow at the École biblique et archéologique Française, Dr. Barnea focuses on Yahwism under the “Iranian Age of Empires,” exploring how Persian rule and Zoroastrianism likely shaped early Judaism, suggesting the Moses narrative may have emerged far later than commonly thought. Beyond texts, Barnea has uncovered a groundbreaking ostracon from Elephantine, the earliest known Jewish curse text, and evidence of a Jewish priestess—a revelation about ancient Jewish rituals. He’s also restored a Qumran scroll (4Q550) containing a forgotten Achaemenid court tale, set to release with Brill, and co‑edits a book on “Yahwism under the Achaemenid Empire.” With years of tech experience, Barnea is also advancing Digital Humanities, making biblical studies accessible and transforming how we understand figures like Moses in light of Hellenistic influences. 00:00:00 The Lack of Archaeological Evidence for Moses and the Exodus 00:16:02 Archaism in Ancient Texts and Coins 00:32:54 Ancient Warfare and Land Distribution 00:49:42 Jewish Literary Sources in Alexandria 01:06:26 The Connection between Moses and the Jews 01:23:39 Hellenistic and Jewish Textual Interactions 01:41:25 The Evolution of Monotheism in Ancient Religions 02:01:00 Influence of Hellenistic Culture on Jewish Traditions 02:16:43 Polytheism vs. Monotheism in Ancient Cults 02:32:59 MythVision Community Farewell
