Another thought is that the scriptures are of divine origin. If the book was only written by man, then mentioning Rahab in the book of Job while claiming its the first book written would present problems. Since God is the author and He knows the future as if its the present, naming a person's name before they were born just shows the omniscience, providence, etc. of God.

Unlikely.
The "cohorts of Rahab" are mentioned in the past tense... not future tense.
