They read it because they don't know any better

"REVELATION IS A COMMUNICATION OF SOMETHING, WHICH THE PERSON TO WHOM THE THING IS REVEALED DID NOT KNOW BEFORE. FOR IF I HAVE DONE A THING, OR SEEN IT DONE, IT NEEDS NO REVELATION TO TELL ME, I HAVE DONE OR SEEN IT DONE NOR ENABLE ME TO TELL IT OR WRITE IT. REVELATION THEREFORE CANNOT BE APPLIED TO ANYTHING DONE UPON EARTH, OF WHICH MAN IS HIMSELF ACTOR OR WITNESS AND CONSEQUENTLY ALL THE HISTORICAL PART OF THE BIBLE WHICH IS ALMOST THE WHOLE OF IT, IS NOT WITHIN THE MEANING AND COMPASS OF THE WORD REVELATION AND THEREFORE IS NOT THE WORD OF GOD."
