Irwin Linton, who as a lawyer was accustomed to analyzing what was required as proof in a court of law, wrote: “While romances, legends and false testimony are careful to place the events related in some distant place and some indefinite time,... the Bible narratives give us the date and place of the things related with the utmost precision. ”
Irwin Linton, kes on juristina harjunud kohtus nõutavaid tõestusi analüüsima, kirjutas: „Kui rüütlilood, legendid ja valetunnistused asetavad neis toodud sündmused hoolikalt kuskile kaugesse paika ja mingisse ebamäärasesse aega,... annavad piiblilood neis toodud sündmuste ülitäpse aja ja koha. ”
