Why are you trying to tell me what the Bible is by telling me about Mormoms or Muslims. I am not even going to touch your confusion about the Koran other than to say that the WORD means recitation. The Angel Recited it to Mohamed, Muslims believe. It is not about Mohamed's live.
The Old Testament was first put to scroll during the Babylonian Captivity 500-600 BCE. It was not written over 1500 years. And yes, sir, obviously the OT or Torah dealt with Judaism. Christians later used it, obsconded with it to give heft and a sense of history or validity to their nascent religion. Nothing wrong with that.
That the writers of the Bible wrote about people and places that existed makes sense doesn't it. The didn't have Ray Bradbury on staff. As for MANY of the PROPHECIES being proven is kinda silly. The VIRGIN Birth for instance is pretty silly. That whoever wrote the Gospels might have thrown in some details to align historically unprovable details is pretty easy to do.
The work is one of the the Greatest works in Literature - no question. It wasn't written in many countries other than a few of the Gospels and letters by Paul. It was written in Persia during the exile.
NOTE: Funny that you wrote "only the Old Testament is about Judaism, you dense clown". No one suggested it wasn't.
