Question:
Seder Olam, Abarbanel, Rashi and Redak all try hard to fit the years of the Shofetim into 480 years between leaving Egypt and building the Beis Hamikdash.
Reading Sefer Shofetim one would get the impression that it spans over 500 years.
Are there any modern discoveries or authors that shed light on this question?
Answer:
Sorry for procrastnating. Am unaware of any modern discoveries or authors that shed light on this question-sorry.
