Hi TD, its nice to be able to chat freely. I'm not a great one for staying on topic. It can feel very restictive.
Yes the Bible is clear. Ziv is the 2nd months and there is no other kind of cross ref for it. The Bible sticks to this. It's only when so-called scholars wade in and try to moved things around by suggesting the months have a different order that uncertainty enters. Actually its not uncertainty it utter confusion. Such ones paved the way for Watchtower.
The Bible is easy to understand, it starts off really gently showing how time is counted with Adam up to Lamech. Gets tiny bit more complex with Noah and so it continues as if supporting you to improve your skill and keeping track of time. Minimal detail is use and the numbering cannot be viewed independent of the actual events/lives of men. Therefore comprehension of the history goes with monitioring the passage of time.
For example - regarding the 2nd month, Watchtower encourages us to view it as October (!!!!!). The Bible actually says the 2nd month is Ziv, spring time (April/May). Just imagaine you are getting a lot of animals off a boat, down a mountain and letting them loose, what would be the best time to do it? October (not a lot to eat) or a beautiful spring with lots of yummy green shoots pushing forth?
*** w03 5/15 pp. 4-5 Noah’s Log—Does It Have Meaning for Us? ***
Noah divided the year into 12 months of 30 days each. In ancient times, the first month started about the middle of our calendar month of September. The floodwaters began to fall in “the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month” and continued falling for 40 days and 40 nights during the months of November and December 2370 B.C.E.(Genesis 7:11) . . .In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month. . .
(1 Kings 6:1) . . .And it came about in the four hundred and eightieth year after the sons of Israel came out from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year, in the month of Ziv, that is, the second month, after Sol′o‧mon became king over Israel, that he proceeded to build the house to Jehovah. . .

TD - there is no uncertainty regarding the reigns of the king - IF - you bother counting the years properly. And you have to read the scriptures very carefully to do that work.
Once you get to the reigns of Cyrus, Artaxerxes, etc, they are dealt with in an entirely different manner. Their reigns are only mentioned for the purpose of the tiny bit they are used for. Nothing else is allowed to be known because they are irrelvant to the prophecies to do with the coming of Jesus Christ.
The scriptures provide enough into to go from Adam 1 to Adam 2, providing you don't put any dates in and just go by events and ranges of time.
You can debate the 70 years (I'm no expert so I wont go there) but the info is there if you want to work through it.
Once you get to the centre of histroy, ie Jesus Christ, he, Jesus says he'll return at an unknown day and hour.
And yes Watchtower do date the metal image to 606 BCE, and that dream took place in the 2nd year of Neb. Jerusalem fell in the 19th year of Neb which they say is 607 BCE. So Neb's 19th year of rulership is followed by his 2nd year of rulership. Logic of the Watchtower. Only bettered by their saying Jehoiakim ruled for 11 years and died in the 3rd year of his rulership.

Frozen2018 - please stop being such a bigotted fascist when it comes to the order of letters. Don't you know that you are discriminating by putting letters in a certain order?
You should stick all your letters in a lucky-dip bag then you might come up with something worth saying like LBM.
Please, freedom, it mattres.

I’d a mystic Calvinist biscuit
A Garibaldi in my kitchen drawer
But there’s a big muddy Bourbon footprint
On my Washington Methodist floor
I’m studying the nature of the footprint
Because its crying out to me and its fractious
“Please avoid strife with the biscuit thief
And understand the raisins for his actions.”

JoenB75 - my early years were spent being referred to a 'nigger'. Just another reason why the WT could never hurt me. I learnt to deal with insults, look beyond the words and hope for a good outcome if I was kind.
Been a few years now since I've ever been referred to as 'nigger.'
The worst insults I get now are from fruit-the-loop elders. If they spoke to me (which they wont, even if I trundle round after them in the supermarket), I expect they'd call me an apostate.
By domino mobile device relay system (latest form of tech, unheard of by MIT (they're on catch up)) I hear they refer to me as one with a 'disaffected mind.' This term is spat out. Obviously it miffs them a lot that i can both read and add up. Therefore, insults are directed towards me.
They elders haven't murdered anyone yet (not that I know of) but they are white. I sat with one and he said to me he'd like to be an executioner in they system of things. I put it to him that if he was in Nazi Germany that would mean killing Jehovah's Witnesses. He appeared comfortable with the idea, either that or he had a disaffected mind. I stood up and walked away in disgust and went and told the CO what he had just said. After all this was at the pioneer school, and this guy was teaching us!

JoenB75 - I was told the Scots brought us most of the technology. I knew several Scotsmen - one programmed DOS, the other couldn't work his central heating.
Is common sense/intelligence skin coloured or kilt coloured? If it is kilt coloured what are the colours on the kilt that indicate intelligence? And do the colours have to be in the warp and the weft or just the weft? Or the warp?
The one who couldn't work his central heating came from the Highlands, does altitude affect? He didn't live there very long. He moved to the other end of the country to spend his time castigating us for not being Scottish. He was ok though. Had a great way of wasting elders time by phoning them up to come round and fix his central heating. Maybe he was secretly very clever.
