Thanks for the info DJW
Just sounds like a real silly condescending word.
Either way TruthMatters used the word in a nonsensical inappropriate way

Scholar's position is attached to his personal religious convictions of being a JWS.
If the WTS heads one day say we were wrong about 607 BCE, he in turn will say the same.
There is no logical reasoning or intellectual honesty in religious convictions.

Nope, realized the JWS religion was false and corrupt so I left.

It took a lot of lies, ignorance and corruption to create the JWS religion and the results were ?
by Rocketman123 inlooking back at the jws religion and all what it did to people who joined the results are not very becoming, one might even say regretfully harmful.
here of some things of which i'm thinking about ........ first on the list has to be the thousands of people to date that refused a blood transfusion and died in doing so.. the people that have committed suicide indirectly caused by the jws df social restrictions and other reasons.. all the time wasted distributing the wts literature door to door, only to realize the doctrines the wts (gb) heads created were false and misleading.. all the marriages by young people which were enforced due to strict sexaul behavior, only to end up in divorce for incompatibility reasons.. all the families that have broken up over the decades because of the jws religoius convictions.. all the young teenagers who were persuaded to not obtain higher education because the end is so near.. all the social relationships that could have been fulfilling and good but were halted because someone wasn't a jws.. all the money people gave the wts.
some giving their entire inheritance to the organization which ended up being full of deceit and corruption after all.. .

The truth from the bible is abstract delusion that varies from one religion to another, that's why so many religions are saying they have the right truthful interpretation.

Scholar must be a delusional mentally off balanced idiot to not accept the overwhelming evidence of what happened in the region through archeological findings.
The bible itself supports these findings in many cases.
To him and his JWS brethren ancient prophecies hold more accuracy than all other forms of evidence
Oh wait a second he's god's personally chosen scholar so that makes him right and everyone else in the world all wrong, I got now.

Secular historians date the event of Jerusalem's destruction to within a year of 587 BC. The Witnesses' alternative chronology produces a 20-year gap between the reigns of Neo-Babylonian Kings Amel-Marduk (rule ended 560 BC) and Nabonidus (rule began 555 BC) in addition to the intervening reigns of Neriglissar and Labashi-Marduk, despite the availability of contiguous cuneiform records.[3

A little more insightful information.......
The siege of Jerusalem was a military campaign carried out by Nebuchadnezzar II, king of Babylon, in 597 BC. In 605 BC, he defeated Pharaoh Necho at the Battle of Carchemish, and subsequently invaded Judah. According to the Nebuchadnezzar Chronicle, King Jehoiakim of Judah rebelled against Babylonian rule, but Nebuchadnezzar captured the city and installed Zedekiah as ruler.
Siege[edit]
To avoid the destruction of Jerusalem, King Jehoiakim of Judah, in his third year, changed his allegiance from Egypt to Babylon. He paid tribute from the treasury in Jerusalem, some temple artifacts and some of the royal family and nobility as hostages.[1] In 601 BC, during the fourth year of his reign, Nebuchadnezzar unsuccessfully attempted to invade Egypt and was repulsed with heavy losses. The failure led to numerous rebellions among the states of the Levant which owed allegiance to Babylon, including Judah, where King Jehoiakim stopped paying tribute to Nebuchadnezzar[2] and took a pro-Egyptian position.
Nebuchadnezzar soon dealt with these rebellions. According to the Nebuchadnezzar Chronicle,[3] he laid siege to Jerusalem, which eventually fell in 597 BC. The Chronicle states:
In the seventh year [of Nebuchadnezzar, 598 BC] in the month Chislev [November/December] the king of Babylon assembled his army, and after he had invaded the land of Hatti (Syria/Palestine) he laid siege to the city of Judah. On the second day of the month of Adar [16 March] he conquered the city and took the king [Jeconiah] prisoner. He installed in his place a king [Zedekiah] of his own choice, and after he had received rich tribute, he sent forth to Babylon.[4]
Jehoiakim died during the siege, possibly on December 10, 598 BC,[5] or during the months of Kislev,[6] or Tevet.[7] Nebuchadnezzar pillaged the city and its Temple, and the new king Jeconiah, who was either 8 or 18, and his court and other prominent citizens and craftsmen, were deported to Babylon.[8] The deportation occurred prior to Nisan of 597 BC, and dates in the Book of Ezekiel are counted from that event.[9]
