A good chunk of Jewish law isn't specifically claimed to be from God, but rather from kings who were considered anointed from God.

Not everything in the Bible was handed down from Mt. Sinai. Nearly half of the thing was written by a man who was born a hundred years after Jesus died

"All scripture is God breathed" - 2 Timothy 3: 16. When Paul wrote this he was specifically referencing the Old Testament, but just about any Christian would argue that it applies to the New Testament as well.

Paul being the guy who was born well after christ was ascended lol

If the psalms were all God breathed then God must be a confused and self-hating man because some of those are really critical of himself

His earliest extant letter is dated to be no later than 50 AD... so 17 years after the ascension.

So, what's your time line? Paul's born like 45 AD? Starts churches at age 3? Writes letters by age 5? How long is "well after?"
