Where was Genesis chapter 22 written?

Answer 1

Genesis chapter 22 is considered to be a compilation of material by the Elohist Source (verses 1-10) and the Yahwist Source. The Elohist is believed to have written in the northern kingdom of Israel duiring the eighth century BCE, while the Yahwist is believed to have written in the southern kingdom of Judah duiring the ninth century BCE. A redactor subsequently combined the work of the two sources When the two traditions overlapped, as they often did, the JE redactor generally dropped the Elohist material in favour of the Yahwist material, presumably because the redactor was a resident of Judah.

The result of this is that the first part of Genesis chapter 22 was probably written in Israel, while the remainder was written in Judah. Elohist material that more or less parallels the Yahwist story, in the second part of the chapter, would also have been written in Israel but is now lost.
