I don't get your point here. It's like you honestly believe it would have made more sense for OT prophets to write in modern English or Mandarin Chinese in order to deliver a message to the ancient Hebrews?


Not at all, but some degree of apparent divine inspiration should be evident one would think. There is nothing in the Bible that couldn't have been written by uninspired bronze age nomads, and that's the point. Nothing about the writing inherently suggests "Oh, this seems divinely inspired".

Clearly along with works like the Epic of Gilgamesh, various books of the OldTestament would be standout literature from the age, regardless of religious significance.

But since you brought it up, do you have examples of mundane works from uninspired bronze age nomads?
