Jeffrey Stackert | Judah in the Shadow of the Assyrian Empire

[@hond654]

This is real historian work - putting the pieces together, finding connections, recreating the flow of events. Nice and logical presentation.

[@johnlloyd3377]

Nice presentation and content.

[@crownhouse2466]

This is a very informative talk, thank you! Looking forward to watching it a second time!

[@veronicalogotheti1162]

Thank you

Excellent lecture, and a wonderful examination of textual-context ^v^ ^v^

[@teyanuputorti7927]

this is just amazing it great that we are able to piece together the past apparently I have Israelite ancestry

[@Xhosalion]

Terrific lecture. Especially the concurrence of the Sîn/Šamaš text within the western, Tayinat exemplar and Deuteronomy 28:26-33 is a superb piece of historical sleuthing. Could it be that, when King Joshua had the Deuteronomy produced in 625 BC, that he borrowed heavily from Assyrian and proto-Genesis texts (the rest of the Pentateuch was only compiled 200 years later, post Ezra). To do this he probably employed exiled Israelite scholars who had sought refuge in tiny Jerusalem and would have had access to the texts. They then interposed the name Jahweh for either the relevant Assyrian or Northern Israelite king or deity.

Does the 2 siege theory perhaps explain the three records in 2 Kings? I tend to believe the records indicate, even in the prisms that Sennacherib took the payment and still laid siege. This would explain why there are two stages in the account.

Supremely interesting

[@christianfrommuslim]

The "revision" as he calls it, of the place of sacrifice makes sense in the history of where the Israelites were: In Exodus they were wandering, so certainly the place of sacrifice had to move. Deuteronomy was preparing for settled life in the Promised Land.

This channel has a bunch of good sleep videos

[@notanemoprog]

That may be, but this video, however, is not one of them. It's very, very interesting, and fully captivates the attention.

The hebrew is from akkadian Semitic

Jeffrey Stackert | Judah in the Shadow of the Assyrian Empire. 18.4.24. so when did you awaken to decide you were in a relationship with.......?

[@mdmelle1]

No one! literally no one mentioned about “KINGDOM OF ISRAEL “ ever! ISRAEL TRIBES/PLACE YES! but not “KINGDOM” , name the things as it is please! And HEBREW BIBLE IS not historical source to REFER, it was rewritten many many many times!

[@yangindin1338]

What is your point ?

[@fabiopaolobarbieri2286]

Dolt. Achab, King of Israel, has an important part in the Qurq Stele, where he is recorded as contributing 10,000 foot soldiers and 2000 horsemen to the coalition that defeated Shalmanasser III of Assyria. And King David is mentioned as the arch-predecessor of the kings of Israel, in the stele of Tel Dan. And if you had listened to the lecture, you would know that there is an Assyrian account of the invasion of Judah in 701 BC.

[@RoninDave]

That was the Northern Kingdom of Israel also called Samaria. The United Monarchy of Israel from Saul thru Solomon is harder to find archeologically or in written records of their peers​@@fabiopaolobarbieri2286

Not BCE! It’s BC. We didn’t change the names of months or the days of the week to accommodate wokeness.

[@notanemoprog]

Just read it as "Before Christ's Era", problem solved

[@notanemoprog]

Supremely funny to see that the fictional god of Israel's original simps - the inventors of the religion - stole the most fundamental formula - the Shema - from Assurbanipal. Lol!

[@JA71280]

You reject the Bible, you’re rejecting it’s historical aspect and therefore, history. Shame on you.

Shame on ignoramuses who are willfully blind and try to shame others who have opened their own eyes

@@jozwoz99 Yup! But it sounds like you haven’t perceived the truth. Pity

The Bible is literature.

BCE should be BC “before Christ”…it’s ALL about God, not “eras”

[@michaeldeaton]

Its BCE. The world doesn't revolve around your fictional character.

[@notanemoprog]

@@michaeldeatonWhat a dumb comment. The BCE/BC substitution does not in itself change the fact that year 1 still, indeed, and literally, "revolves around" that character's birth date. So you might use "BCE" as much as you want, but it's still the "BC" logic that gives you the numbers. And by the way, only total doofuses think that Jesus was a "fictional character": scholarly consensus is that he was, indeed, very much real.
