Biblical criticism is hard

Whilst we're on topic of warning the critics, and considering obvious interpolations as seen 4Q365: Corrado Martone reminds that more harmonious does not always imply a later harmonism.

We'll keep this in mind when we consider the famous Nahash pericope, which Frank Polak would consign to infamy. Although... I suspect that Polak did keep this in mind. His argument runs on Reigns' use of language.

We'll also keep in mind that even "early" language can appear in sus-plus, as Judges 6:7-10. If you're a frogger you know at least to do your froggery in the language of the text you're frogging.
