  VAT4956 - 530 BC destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar

  by jwposter in

  2. bible

  in my studies, i have concluded that year 530 bc was when the destruction of jerusalem occurred and the temple destroyed.

  i had determined this prior to investigation of vat4956.

  i had already found that the jubilees, sabbaticals, courses of the priests, and chronology attested to this.

  Though jubilee years are defined in Leviticus, there is no consensus about any specific year actually being observed as a jubilee year, and the Bible doesn’t mention any jubilee years actually observed beyond the definition of the term. Logically, the tradition would point to 537 BCE and hence 587 BCE as jubilee years, and other years could be extrapolated therefrom by the most direct reading, but there also isn’t total agreement whether it should be the 49th or 50th year.

  ‘scholar’:

  pretty coloured charts

  ‘scholar’s’ ability to understand things apparently doesn’t extend beyond ‘liking pretty colours’. You have to read the words too.

  As usual, comments from ‘scholar’ (just parroting Watch Tower Society chronology) can simply be ignored.

  jwposter:

  Solomon's Temple was dedicated in 950 BC.

  The historicity of Solomon is debatable, but biblical chronology would put the completion of the temple in 959 BCE.

  Then you have the 390 years of the Kings as spoken of by Ezekiel 4.

  The 390 years began in 929 BCE, and ended in 539 BCE. (Note that the Septuagint version has a different period, which neatly corresponds to the period from the exile of Israelites to Assyria in 732 BCE during Pekah’s reign to the final deportation in 582 BCE referenced in Jeremiah 52:30. This suggests the 390 years was a later edit from the original.) See also 390 days (from review of Pure Worship.)

  ‘scholar’:

  No need for wonder. The said scholar lacks competence in matters of astro-astronomy and use of the various and numerous astronomical software even though he has some of these installed on the computer.
  Hence, I defer to the scholarship of Rolf Furuli

  🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  jwposter:

  Chronology alone settles the issue of whether there can be a a destruction of the temple in 586/585 BC

  It was 587BCE.

  I wonder if ‘scholar’ will provide valid planetary observations for 588 before jwposter does for 512. 🤣

  joey jojo:

  In their article - When was Jerusalem destroyed? (2011), they mention planets but do not cite what the tablets say about them, choosing to focus on the moon eclipses, which are prone to error and mis-interpretation.

  Ah, yes... that dishonest piece of drivel... it's little wonder they avoid discussion of the planets.
  

  See also The Watch Tower Society’s 2011 attempt to defend 607 along with my summary of VAT 4956 in the correct chronology in my Divided Kingdom timeline and the problems with the JW interpretation of VAT 4956 in my JW chronology timeline.

  Feel free to let me know if any errors. (Not you, jwposter, you're not qualified.)
