The nail in the coffin of the society's understanding of the seventy years appears to be Zech 1:12 and 7:1. Both of these verses refer to the 70 years as ongoing rather than past events. I'm not sure how anyone can claim the society has a "holistic" view of the 70 years when they haven't even dealt with these two verses.
I should say they haven't dealt with them at all, there is one article for each of those verses, but, iirc, the argumentation was very weak. Anyone happen to have those references off hand?
ackack
