The dawn of the written word in ancient cultures was not merely a technological advancement?it was the beginning of an intellectual and spiritual transformation. The ancient Hebrews, in particular, underwent a profound shift in how they conceived and transmitted their sacred traditions. Oral transmission of knowledge was the dominant means of communication for millennia, but as early as the 12th century BCE, the idea of preserving the sacred stories and laws of Israel in written form began to take shape. This transition was critical not only to the survival of the Jewish faith but also to the future development of the Bible as we know it today.
