How does the cuneiform prove the Bible isn't real? This is both appeal to antiquity fallacy and a non-sequitor. The cuneiform being older doesn't disprove the Bible, and it doesn't follow that the texts having historical agreements makes the Bible false.
If anything, the cuneiform is historical attestation to the accuracy of the Bible in its history.
Yes, clay tablets were still around in the days of the Assyria (different language, though) and are a cross-reference. Also Egyptian documents and carvings--the oldest mention of YHWH is a phonetic pictograph in a ruined temple in upper Egypt.
Not saying the Bible is false, merely saying many of the stories have come from the tablets.
Nearly every single religion on Earth has a flood story.
It's because there was a flood, not because of some tablets that they didn't even read.
The reason they all have the same stories is that the stories are true. The Bible is simply God setting the record straight as all the other stories, older or newer, get some details wrong.
And the Cuneiform tablets say there wasn’t just one boat, but several throughout the world. This made it easier to repopulate the earth with people and animals.
Yes, all the flood stories are a little different. Only one is true. Why do you think it's your chosen one? And not the one written from God Himself?
Older does not mean better.
