When was the Torah written?

The authorship of the Torah is one of the most intriguing questions. But in order to know who wrote it we must know when was the Torah written. Many think it was Moses who wrote it. In order to get our answer, I propose a different path: we will look at the anachronisms of the Torah books and see where these lead us chronologically. This is the first video of a longer series on the Pentateuch books. It will be in paralel with a series on the Exodus as the two topics are connected. As we progress, I will show you the importance of dating the Torah and the Exodus.
The book about camels that I mention in the video is called "Camels in the Biblical World" by Martin Heide and Joris Peters.
