What books of the Bible were written between 1400 and 450 BCE?
None of the Bible was written as we now know it in the period from 1400 down to the eighth century, with most of the Old Testament written during or after the seventh-century reign of King Josiah, although some source traditions already existed in both oral and written form.The first book to be written in more or less the form we know today was the Book of Deuteronomy, believed to have been written during Josiah's reign. Other books followed during the later monarchy, the Babylonian Exile and the post-Exilic period.The canonical books not yet written by 450 BCE certainly include the second-century Books of Esther and Daniel. Malachi, Ezra and parts of Zechariah might have been written around 450 BCE or later. Nehemiah would have been written after 450 BCE. Whether the Book of Zephaniah was written late in the seventh century BCE or even long after 450 BCE is strongly debated.
