The said scholar has at least a couple of degrees whereas all that you have are some pretty coloured charts.
I know you like the pretty colours, but you have to actually read the words too.
What’s the point of boasting about alleged degrees if you can’t even properly parse information.

The book of Daniel is about one thing and that is God's kingdom.
A trite Watch Tower Society lie (but inherited from its Protestant origins). The entire book of Daniel mentions a future kingdom of God only 2 times, and 7 of the 12 chapters don’t mention God’s kingdom at all.

Does that mean you have two contradictory accounts?
Of course not. Daniel isn’t a historical account. You do not understand what the book is actually about.
And the Watch Tower Society acknowledges the relative timing of the siege on Tyre (though it erroneously claims it was against the mainland city, which was actually Ushu).

‘scholar’:
According to the Old Greek translation of Daniel in Daniel 4:1 Neb had the tree dream in his 18th year and 12 months later the experience of the dream was realized.
He was besieging Tyre then (i.e. 12 months after 587 BCE).
It is tiresome that you don’t understand what the book of Daniel is actually about.

Thus when he refers to a period pertaining to Neb then that must be accounted for if one wishes to construct an authentic chronology of the period.
But you can’t.
There is no need as it lacks chronological detail for the purpose of Bible Chronology but cannot be ignored by advocates of Neo - Neo-Babylonian chronology as it was a historical event. during the reign of Neb.
It seems poor doofus doesn’t understand that the total duration of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign (including any spurious 7 years of insanity) is the same in the JW chronology as it is in the actual chronology (necessitated by the Bible’s identification of Jehoiachin’s release from prison), though the JW chronology moves it 20 years earlier and messes up the order of events at the beginning of his reign. So the only way to ‘account for the seven years’ in any meaningful way is to specify a range of years, otherwise someone (if they believed it was a real period) could just assert that the 7 years of insanity was ‘some time after 587 BCE’.

The book of Daniel is not a story but that of history and prophecy written by a witness to the events of the Neo-Babylonian Period who lived through the 70 years.
To borrow your own phrasing,‘ if this was the case then a literal interpretation of Daniel would be universally endorsed by current scholarship.’ 🤣

‘scholar’:
The fact is that Daniel refers to a period during Neb's reign in which he was vacant from the throne. This period is accepted to be a literal seven years that must be factored in any scheme of Neb's reign for Chronology. The period must be inserted after Neb's 19 th year-607 BCE and before the end of his reign so you have much to play with.
Restating the claim made in the story is not a valid response to the question. It just reminds us that you don’t understand the period or context in which Daniel was written. But the point is well made… you have no stable chronology of the neo-Babylonian period.
586 or 587 BCE are bogus dates for the Fall of Jerusalem. Since 1975 when A.K.Grayson published his translation of BM 21946 scholars remain uncertain about which date either 586 or 587 is correct. Currently, the said scholar would propose that it is an even split between both candidates. Further, confusion remains about the methodology surrounding such a contention.
And you’re wrong.

Okay Jeffro l will clear off 🤣🤣.
You’re welcome to stay, but it’s rather odd when people go to a thread just to say they aren’t interested in the subject. I’m not remotely interested in knitting but I’m not going to go to a knitting club just to tell them knitting is a waste of time.
