Eh, it's one of those 'blink and you'll miss it' moments. I had read the bible front to back a few times as a kid, but it wasn't until a college class that taught the bible as literature, not religious truth, that I remembered where it was pointed out that in the book judges a bunch of people found the book of deuteronomy and brought it to the religious leader of the time to ask if it was real or whatever. I think the whole episode comprised six verses or less.

Thanks, that's very interesting.
