comment What are the similarities and differences between the Genesis creation account and other creation stories of the time
I'm not saying every age listed has to do with solar year. I don't think they chose big numbers at random. The ages are actually another similarity/difference with Enuma Elish; I think the kings listed in there "reigned for 10000 years" and such.

When was Genesis compiled, on the DH view?

comment Was Moses the probable author of Genesis?
Well I don't go in for the whole documentary hypothesis thing, so I don't know how far we can get in these little comments. I don't think the whole Pentateuch is exilic, just Genesis. Exodus is early, written around the time the Saul, David, Solomon succession stories were (Pharaoh sure does look a lot like Solomon...). One good bit of evidence for later Genesis is there's no mention of "Eden" in any of the older books.
