Did Moses have the same intents as Homer? Judging from the text...

Judging from the text, I don't think Moses cared one bit about the Trojans or their heroism.

(It's possible that the "Javan" of Genesis 10.2 and 10.4 means the Ionians = Greeks.)

I didn't say Moses cared anything for the Trojans. My point was that his purpose for writing was different than Homer's.

BTW...Moses probably lived 200 years before the Trojan War.
