there is not any truth as to the author of Ruth. It became written lengthy after the dramatic narrative historic past it exhibits. the tale takes position interior the historic era of the Judges. The Samuel cycle I and a couple of were initially one scroll. Written round seven-hundred BCE the historic suggestion became perhaps edited jointly from quite a few factors. It covers a era of virtually one hundred years so ought to no longer were one author. It chronicles the type of the kings of israel. Likewise, Joshua and Judges are expenses and histories sewn jointly by later editors depending totally on quite some written expenses of particular events and oral custom. hence not one of the books said can declare a unmarried author.

If you include Psalms there are 66. I suggest you look in a copy of The Bible to save me listing them all! They were written over a period of not less than 1500 years. The authorship of some old testament books is disputed. It is possible that some of these contain material from more than one source. I understand that the Song of Deborah is probably the oldest piece of material in the whole book.

Get a King James Version of the Holy Bible - preferably the Study Bible and read the introductions to the Study Bible and to each book of the Bible. It will answer all of your questions to the best of man's ability today.
I would type in the information for you but it is too much to post on YA.

Depends which Bible you choose, Catholic and Protestant are different, not to mention those were the ones hand picked while many others were not.
It was written by man, from oral traditions, rules for behavior, and other mythology. Written by man, inspired by man.
Kill your GOD, Free your mind.

I get that feeling from your question.
