There are different opinions as to when Job was, some hold that he was even much earlier. The common opinion is that he was at the time I cited a above. The Talmud in https://www.sefaria.org/Bava_Batra.14b states that Moses wrote that book. But that is not the only opinion about that,there is also the Jerusalem Tmud about that), but it is the most cited.

The article states the lead possibly came from the Taurus Mountains in Anatolia.

Analysis on the Mount Ebal lead shows it was possibly from Greece.

“There are traditional opinions that Job was written by Moses before the Exodus.”

***********************************************************

Is the suggestion that Job, if in Egypt, told the story to Moses and Moses recorded it for him?

Or did Moses write it from his imagination?

Either way, did he write it while in Egypt or in Midian?

BTW, per Biblical verses, the ancient Greeks and ancient Assyrians were together...at the time.

Not sure.. but if it was in Midian, then it was at the same time as the Verse in Numbers (parsha Matot) refers to.

I am confused. If the item found in the Negev is 6,000 years old and the defixio found on Mount Ebal is 3,400 (both approx) how were they together at that time?

The “6,000” old does not have to be related to the Midian that we are talking about. (BTW, “6,000” is an approximate figure. As we are today 5782 since Creation).

I meant Moses, Meedianites and Job to be as a possibilityat the near sane time. Not to the approx. 6,000 yeas old item discovery.

“The “6,000” old does not have to be related to the Midian that we are talking about. (BTW, “6,000” is an approximate figure. As we are today 5782 since Creation).”

This is not an answer to the question. You are welcome to use Jewish dates, but the men involved in this discovery are clearly using B.C. dating, which is standard most times in the scientific community.

Here is proof. https://www.livescience.com/52984-oldest-lead-artifact-in-levant.html

Here is a quote from that article.

Radiocarbon dating suggests the wood was created between 4300 B.C. and 4000 B.C., “which is extremely early,” Yahalom-Mack said. “For a wooden artifact to be preserved [that long] is incredible.”

So, it is approx 6,000 year old article. With the Hebrew calendar being in the 5782 year that means this item was found 218 after creation. If the date of the calendar started with creation...

If you don’t have a clear answer to my question, just say so, no reason to spin webs. No harm, no foul. No one knows it all :-)

BTW, (asides from the book of Job) lead is mentioned in an earlier book than Numbers, as in the book of Exodus 15:10 [ https://www.sefaria.org/Exodus.15.10 ] "They sank like lead in the majestic waters." at the splitting of the sea. But I chose the Numbers 31:22 [ https://www.sefaria.org/Numbers.31.22 ], because it talks about utensil, thus, it was IN USE by humans.
