No creditable scientist uses the bible as fact for the past. You are mistaken.

Firstly, we are talking primarily about the New Testament in this discussion
here: Namely the historical evidence for the person of Jesus Christ.
Secondly, you'll be hard pressed to find historical evidence of any Nomadic tribe who lived 3000+ years ago. Now compound that by the fact that they only were there by the biblical account 40 years. King David who lived after this period were thought by historians to be a myth until someone found an old stone tablet that mentioned him. And remember King David wasn't nomadic.
Not being able to prove something by an outside source isn't proof that the narrative is false.
