These written in the Pentateuch were given to Moses by God (Leviticus 1:1, ESV). It is also explicitly stated in Deuteronomy 31:9 and 31:24 (ESV). At the same time, it is believed that Joshua could have finish the writings of the Pentateuch. As noted when it is stated “Moses said” (Deuteronomy 33:2, ESV). Even though the setting of the David or Solomon may seem possible as the Pentateuch discusses about the situation of this time, the prophecy about the sinners and disobedient would not be described at this setting. The people were only experiencing blessing and fulfillment of the Abrahamic Covenant. They would not write down the warnings of God to the Israelites and would believe it is irrelevant to the Pentateuch. Having the Pentateuch written during Josiah’s time would be improbable.

These events were seen in the Pentateuch, but to believe that it was written at this time would be inaccurate. Before the time of Josiah, these events were held during the conquering of the land in Joshua’s time. During the time of Ezra and Nehemiah, the major topic was intermarriage and priestly law and sacrifices. Many scholars
