Secular hypotheses notwithstanding, King David possessed the Five Books of Moses, plus the books of Joshua, Samuel, Ruth, and Judges. He also wrote and compiled the Psalms.For some decades, academic scholars have claimed that many psalms were written several centuries after King David. They stated this for theoretical reasons. Recent analysis, however, makes it clear that the language, style, genre and phraseology of the Psalms is much more ancient than had been claimed.
