‘scholar’:
Nonsense. Jer.52: 28 refers to the first deportation and not the 2nd deportation of Jews in Neb's 7th year in agreement with BM 21946.
Jer. 52:29 refers to a later deportation of Jews or second deportation of Jews in Neb's 18th year which formed part of Neb's final siege of Jerusalem ending in 607 BCE
This means rather than there being three deportations of Jews taken into Exile according to COJ there were only two deportations of Jews into Exile according to the Biblical record of 2 Ki.24.
How can you be so completely wrong at every turn? 😂 Firstly, yes verse 28 refers to the first deportation and 29 refers to the second, which is plainly stated in the passage. 🤦♂️ And, as I correctly stated, these verses confirm the placement of the end of the second siege relative to the first. 🙄 Secondly, 607 is hopelessly wrong no matter how many times you say it, as clearly evidenced by the fact that there are contemporary records for every single year, explicitly including every transition of the known kings. Thirdly, BM 21946 confirms that Nebuchadnezzar collected tributes throughout Palestine in early 604BCE, which could have included captives (though because Daniel is fictitious it isn’t strictly necessary that captives were included). Fourthly, though it isn’t strictly necessary that there was a ‘deportation’ in Nebuchadnezzar’s accession year, Jeremiah 52:30 does indicate a later third deportation in 582 BCE so you’re wrong anyway. 😂
