It’s best to stay with the Bible. If one is philosophically inclined you may take that lifelong course of inquiry to learn more of human history. There are so many books about the Bible, science and history to examine. Wittgenstein and Quine developed linguistic philosophy among others. Yet for understanding the Bible in depth a lot of specialized and general knowledge is required.
Really there isn’t one simple book to explain all of the possible historical and historical circumstances in which ancient scripture fits. A deictic reference is one that was written in a particular historical period and that dates material. Understanding the knowledge that people had in a given era as compared with today is another kind of reference base for comparison for interpretation of meaning.
I had a few tries at interpreting paradigmata of some of Genesis and other books of the Bible. Those books of mine are free to download.
Lots of theories and variables involved with dating early Genesis. Avrm was circa 2000 BC. You might want to read; Abraham: The First Historical Biography by Rosenberg. I made a timeline from Noah once using a certain criteria quite a bit more expansive than from the Younger Dryas period. That is in one of my free books considering such topics. One might go on about such considerations for quite a while without certainty.
