Yes -- they wrote within their knowledge base. We know so much more now about medicine, psychiatry, neurology than the writers knew at the time.

If we ask the Bible a science question, we get a bad answer that is thousands of years antiquated -- is the world really only 6,000 years old? If we ask the Bible a faith story, we get the truth about God's loving purposes.
