There is a whole range of views on the reliability of the Old Testament. Conservative Jews and Christians believe it to be a totally reliable historical account, but other see it as largely based on history but would be unconcerned to find historical errors. Muslims believe the Old Testament to be based on actual events, but also believe that it has been corrupted by the Jews for their own purposes.
