::::::{{re|Primal Groudon}} The opinion of the Wikipedia Community is that you're not allowed to analyze the Bible. No editor is allowed. And we don't believe that the Bible could analyze itself, see [[WP:NOTTHEOCRACY]]. Wikipedia does not endorse any religion, therefore it does not endorse [[Sola Scriptura]]. The Bible cannot interpret itself, but always has to be interpreted by [[WP:MAINSTREAM]] [[WP:SCHOLARSHIP]]. And don't fool yourself: ''you'' were assigning the 11th century dating to it, not the Bible. The Bible itself does not claim that the book is dating to any century. ''You'' were performing the analysis, not the Bible: the Bible is not [[WP:SCHOLARSHIP]], nor is it [[WP:RS]]. So don't play word games with us, or you'll get blocked before you know what happened. The only deal you could possibly get here is: [[WP:CITE]] [[WP:MAINSTREAM]] [[WP:SCHOLARSHIP]] or be gone from this article. No experienced Wikipedia editor could offer you another deal.

Yup, most germane comments seems to be:
{{talk quote|The Bible is a primary historical source document, and should only be used on that basis. It says X, that doesn't mean we can say that X is true, but is verifiable that the Bible says X and that fact can be included in relevant articles. You can't interpret a primary source: "This bit says X and that bit says says Y, therefore Z" is not acceptable; "This says X and that says Y" is broadly acceptable. However, you shouldn't need to doyour own exegesis. Every part of the Bible has been the subject of detailed study by experts. If there's a particular historical event that interests you, experts will have written about it, explaining its context and meaning in minute detail. The works of those experts should be the references for anything other than simply repeating or paraphrasing or summarising what the Bible says. In this the Bible is no different from any other primary historical source. [[User:Angusmclellan|Angus McLellan]] [[User talk:Angusmclellan|(Talk)]] 00:38, 20 December 2007 (UTC)}}
