The irregular tree ring signatures between bristlecone pine at 1627 BCE and the sync of 1626 BCE in the Irish bog are actually 91 years apart so that by natural extension the sequence constructs between the end of GB2 and Teeshan that begins at 13 BCE are incorrect in sync.
The near century gap of *missing* oaks between the end of the Dorsey extended chronology (95 BCE) to the beginning of Teeshan (13 BCE) is caused by the incorrect sync.

 Dating the Pentateuch
This "educated guess" sees the time of David or Solomon for the formation of some of the motifs later found in the Pentateuchal narratives, allowing about 200 years before their appearance in statements by Isaiah, Hosea, and Amos.
It is about 540 years from the Hyksos expulsion (1540 BCE) to the days of David and Solomon, time enough for the account to become "garbled" into the forming Exodus traditions alluded to still later by Isaiah.
So, in conclusion, I understand that the Pentateuch as we have it, is probably a creation of the 5th centruy BCE, but preserving some Pre-Exilic traditions, alluded to by Isaiah, Hosea and Amos, who in turn must have picked them up from even earlier times, the Davidic/Solomonic era, I suspect.
