There are countless flaws all over the old testament and it in no way can be considered authoritative. This includes dates, nations, people, places and many other mistakes.
Ahhh... someone whose brain I'd like to pick. I'm sure you get as big a chuckle as I do out of these debates that focus on the literal bible-- knowing all the while there's the allegorical, metaphorical and esoteric layers to pierce. I'm into the last and, hoo boy, does it rock one's world! Talk about revelations!
