Yes. Otherwise look at Hammurabi's Code.

It is not out of the realm of impossibility that Noah and Abraham might have written down such historical account of events dating back to time of creation, perhaps some of the very scriptures might have been written but these individuals themselves. There might have been even more that was written down that we have never seen before, but alas are now lost to the ravages of time.
The first five books of the Bible (or Torah) is attributed to Moses, but did he write down everything himself, that will unfortunately be an unsolved mystery.
I suggest that if you really want to know who wrote the books of the Bible, I would recommend the following books...
The Everything History of the Bible Book: From Divine Inspiration to Modern-Day Discoveries--a Complete Reference, By Jeffery Donley, Ph.D.
The Everything Bible Book: From Genesis to Revelation, All You Need to Understand the Old and New Testaments, By Father John Trigilio & Kenneth Brighenti, Ph.D.
The Complete Bible Handbook: An Illustrated Companion, (with tons of photos, llustrations, diagrams, & pictures) By John Bowker

No, John was. John was a witness for the testimony of Jesus the Christ, before they were born into the world.
Revelation 12 through 19 is the true story of the creation of life on earth.

The story of creation was never meant to be scientific fact -it is a poem told and retold then written and rewritten over many years.
I do not believe that anyone could ever figure out by whom the poem was written.
Same with the other forms of literature in the Bible.

Probably. The first five books of the Bible were originally written by him. Before then, it was probably just an oral tradition dating back to Adam and Eve.

We will never know. The Catholic church burned all other religous books after it was created by a Roman ruler. Its probably likely since the Jews met many cities during their 40 year hike.

Yes he was. God told him what to write. And scientists have been finding it to be true. Like Noah's ark was found, built to the same measurements as the Bible says.
