The g-r-e-a-t news about that scholarly observation is that it strongly suggests that the Patriarchal narratives [always excluding chapters 14 and 49 of Genesis] were not transformed into alphabetical Biblical Hebrew until the late 7th century BCE, in Jerusalem. That’s the o-n-l-y realistic way in which the spelling and grammar of Hebrew common words in the bulk of the Patriarchal narratives could show a “remarkable grammatical/syntactical homogeneity” with the spelling and grammar of Hebrew common words in the second half of II Samuel.
