MOSES - God's Favorite Author and Favorite General in God's Army

How did Moses know what verse and chapter to write to compose genesis since he was not present with pencil and paper to witness at first hand not only God’s creation, but also to translate God’s dialogue with himself? What about Adam and Eve? What language did they utilize to talk to each other and to talk to God? Moses was inspired by God to write genesis? Why then would God inspire Moses to write that He made light on the first day, but on the fourth day He made the sun to light up the day and made the moon to light up the night. What kind of astronomical nonsense is this from God for Moses to report? Again, Moses says that Adam live to 930 years. The was no calendar yet existing during that time. How did Moses figured the seconds in a minute, the minutes in an hour, the hours in a day, the days in a week, the weeks in a month, the months to comprise one year? God never told Moses that the earth is round and that it orbits around the sun! That it is also foolish to try and stop it from moving. Moses also wrote that Joshua commanded the sun to stop! It is really too bad that Adam and Eve never thought of killing and cooking the talking snake for dinner and have God over for dinner as their special guest. Moses would have made more sense writing biblical history developing as revealed by God to him. In the meantime, take a good look at Moses, God's favorite author and also God's favorite general in God's army: "They attacked Midian as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed all the men. All five of the Midianite kings—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—died in the battle. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword. Then the Israelite army captured the Midianite women and children and seized their cattle and flocks and all their wealth as plunder. They burned all the towns and villages where the Midianites had lived. After they had gathered the plunder and captives, both people and animals, they brought them all to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the whole community of Israel, which was camped on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho. Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp. But Moses was furious with all the generals and captains who had returned from the battle. “Why have you let all the women live?” he demanded. “These are the very ones who followed Balaam’s advice and caused the people of Israel to rebel against the Lord at Mount Peor. They are the ones who caused the plague to strike the Lord’s people. So kill all the boys and all the women who have had intercourse with a man. Only the young girls who are virgins may live; you may keep them for yourselves." Numbers 31:7-18 Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
