The first "books" created by an author (not a pickup) in Hebrew are not before 300 BC (Qohelet, Ecclesiastes, Ben Sira-Ecclesiastical: These two texts have a focus staff which is not traditional, it cost much to put them then in the Bible.)
receive a new genre: the adventure stories (Ruth, Esther and Judith) also when you close the canon will admit problems. It also appears apocalyptic literature (Rev. Daniel). They were said former to give them responsibility. Much of this literature will be out of the Bible.
must distinguish the authorship of a text and the pseudo-epigraphy (the text attributed to an older person, for example, Solomon's books). The first example of this is given in Deuteronomy (say what you said to Moses before his death.) Josiah himself makes to see that stuff, which is a reform that promotes, has been discovered in the temple. Also about the book of Daniel (Part Two) in the wisdom of Solomon and the Psalms and Proverbs (which supposedly are David and Solomon).
scribes are therefore fundamental in what would later be the Bible. They are mainly Levitical (from the tribe of Levi). Were also responsible for transmitting and interpreting knowledge, were the scholars of the time.
Deuteronomy, Isaiah and the Psalms were the most important books. The scribes say they are akin to Moses and the prophets to justify.
There are six ways of producing texts :
1-Transcripts of oral traditions
Genesis. It is collected from various cultures.
2-Invention of a new text
Qohelet, Ben Sira, the Book of Job (focusing on the problem of evil, a theme that first appears. Is used dialogue and knowledge is a novel), The Chronicles and the Psalms invention will be half and half traditional collection.
3-Compilation of existing traditions and oral or written
Proverbs, priestly laws and parts of the Psalms.
4-Expansion of a legacy text (extension)
Deuteronomy (from 12 to 28 would be the embryo that extend from the front and back).
5-Adaptation of an existing text to a new audience
standards or laws that are molded (Exodus 21, Leviticus 25: They have been preserved in spite of its apparent contradictions)
6-Integration of individual documents and lump them all in one unit complex (uniform composition)
Splicing inserting text or text fragments (the latter happens in Genesis).
transcribing (and who choose to remove and what to leave) as the result inventing a new book. The purpose was to bring Jews from all over (they had different ways of thinking). This collection of texts was to get the Book of the Jewish people, for it should be reflected these various forms of Jewish thought. This process is lengthy and complex.
Then there is a fundamental change; the book (the writing) becomes central. Requires training, study, worship, and interpretation of something already to sow embodied in this book, the revelation, the word of God.
