Accept this challenge.
I'm not particularly swayed by this fallacious appeal to pride either.
if anyone were to come up to you claiming that they are the faithful and discreet slave, how would you go about proving them to be false, based upon scripture?.

Haha. Thereās a whole slew of threads with questions you have not answered.
Mighty? What a joke.

And yet you still have no answers, only trite nonsense in response.

What I figure is that your nonsense is more akin to that of the Adventists.
That makes no sense. Please tell me you realise that your end times beliefs are Adventism.

āscholarā responding to Bruceās series of questions is like a cow staring at an oncoming train. To spoil the ending, the big reveal is that the travel time to and from Jerusalem means they couldnāt have been āat Babylonā for the full 70 years anyway. Which would be yet another problem in the JW chronology, but the bigger problem is that it would be nonsensical to āturn attention to their returnā after 70 years if they were by then already there.

How can it be said that the NB Period is well attested with documentary evidence for every year when it fails to address the Jewish Exiles in Babylon for 70 years, fails to account for the 'Babylonian Gap' of the missing 20 years and the missing 7 years of Neb's vacancy from the throne.
Itās almost as though the JW (Adventist) interpretation is a load of nonsense that isnāt consistent with the well established facts. Go figure. š

You and Scholar have passionately argued alternate timelines that require a precision and certitude we just can't possibly have.
The NeoBabylonian period is one of the best attested periods in antiquity with documentary evidence for every year of the period. Whilst we do not have Babylonian records for the destruction of Jerusalem itself, the records in the Bible that are also found in Babylonian records (most notably the main deportation in early 597BCE) are completely consistent, and there is little reason to suppose that only the date of Jerusalemās destruction would be uniquely unreliable (and the accession dating references interpolated at Jeremiah 52:28-30 also appears to be from Babylonian sources). To say we cannot be precise about events in that period is simply wrong. āscholarā on the other hand just parrots Watch Tower Society drivel.

I donāt require fallacious appeals to authority. You are never able to point out specific errors in my work anyway, just tedious complaints that it differs from JW nonsense (just like all the experts). Thatās not to say there are definitely no errors but your skill in the subject is so poor that identifying any actual errors wonāt be coming from you.
