why trust any historical account in the Bible?
Because most of the historical accounts in scripture do not deal with pre-historic events.
I’ll choose satire. Pre-history would probably be some time before God uttered the word “let.”
History is usually too weird to be fiction. No publisher would buy the stories if they were made up.
“Because most of the historical accounts in scripture do not deal with pre-historic events.”
If we have a historical account from Scripture, it’s not really a pre-historic event, now is it?
