Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Assyrian chronology of the first millennium BCE is well established, especially for the period 912-609 BCE, but it is difficult to determine whether there were overlapping reigns due to possible co-regencies. Assyriologists have assumed that there were no co-regencies among the Assyrian reigns. Based on this assumption, Edwin R. Thiele, in his thesis published in 1951, established a chronology of the Hebrew kings, relying on the numerous synchronisms with the Assyrian kings, but several of the required synchronisms exhibited gaps ranging from 10 to 45 years. He solved this problem by assuming the existence of nine co-regencies among the Hebrew reigns. Despite this choice, which destroys the chronological coherence of the Hebrew reigns, Thiele's chronology still serves as a reference for scholars. However, a careful examination of these synchronisms shows that there were several co-regencies among the Assyrian reigns, which they have been correctly dated in the biblical chronology, such as those of Sennacherib and Tiglath-Pileser III. These kings played a crucial role in Israel's history during their co-regencies, such as Sennacherib's campaign in Judah (his 3rd) with the siege of Lachish and Jerusalem, which took place in 712 BCE during the 10th campaign of Sargon II (722-705) with whom he was co-regent (715-705). This agrees exactly with the biblical account stating that all these events occurred during the 14th year of Judean King Hezekiah (726-697) also dated 712 BCE. Similarly, the Israelite king Menahem (771-760) had to pay a tribute (in 765 BCE) to an Assyrian king Pul (2Ki 15:19-20). The Assyrian word pulu, from apil/aplu, means "the heir (i.e., crown prince)". King Pul(as) reigned 36 years, according to Josephus (Jewish Antiquities IX: 283-287), which corresponds exactly to the Assyrian king Pulu (co-regent) known by his Aramaic name Bar-Ga'yah "Son of the Majesty" who reigned from 782 to 746 BCE.

This book was released on 2015-11-14 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians consider the Biblical account of Jonah's warning against Nineveh as pious fiction, but the Gospels refer to it as a real story (Lk 11:29-32). The book of Jonah, despite its brevity, gives some verifiable information regarding Nineveh, a very old city, which disappeared completely after its destruction in 612 BCE. The dimensions mentioned seem colossal, however they do agree with the accounts of Herodotus, Diodorus and Strabo. Jonah's mission coincided with Jeroboam II's accession (2 Ki 14:23-25) and Shalmaneser III's death in 824 BCE who had previously commissioned Shamshi-Adad V as new Crown prince to quell the revolt headed by his brother Assur-danin-pal, who had headed 27 cities including the renowned Nineveh. Jonah's mission was therefore a success since Assyrian expansionism to the Mediterranean coast would cease, at least for 80 years.

This book was released on 2014-07-19 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disclaimer: Even though the Bible is used as a source text for data, this book is a discussion of ANE chronology, not a theological or religious presentation, nor are the chronological arguments set forth for rethinking ancient ANE chronology faith-based. Parts of this book have been previously set forth in Synchronized Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms by the same author. This book presents chronological speculations that require temporarily setting aside established assumptions about the history of the ancient Near East so as to consider an alternative historical timeline that claims to reflect a better interpretation of the available historical data. Without intent to call anyone's scholarship into question, this book is nevertheless intended to raise reasonable doubt about the validity of ancient Near East chronology, and thus its history, as currently understood. It does so by calling attention to the Assyrian timeline and the fact that it has inconsistencies that result from not taking into account relevant chronological details preserved in the Bible. This book asserts that, by not including the biblical data, the traditional Assyrian chronology is incorrect and features an incomplete timeline that has led to misunderstanding of the ANE region's history prior to the year 745 BCE. The methodology used in this book to make the case for rethinking ANE chronology hearkens back to a premise popular in ages past, namely, that the Bible is a trustworthy source of chronological and historical data, a source text that can be used with confidence by chronologists and historians to calibrate an accurate timeline for the ancient Near East kingdoms of Israel, Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Levant. That latter idea will no doubt be viewed with skepticism, especially by those who have placed their faith in the absolute reliability of the Assyrian Eponym List and Chronicles as providing the only true base timeline for aligning all chronologies for the ancient kingdoms that once dominated the region. However, the current Assyrian-based ANE timeline being used throughout academia exhibits contradictions prior to 745 BCE that have yet to be satisfactorily explained. Finding a basis for constructing a new chronology that allows all timelines to harmonize is a goal that scholars everywhere should be able to support. As a first step in that process, this book's New Hebrew Kings Chronology has been harmonized with the independently assembled timeline for ancient Egypt. That both the Hebrew and Egyptian timelines align with one another, while the Assyrian timeline exhibits disharmony when compared to them, suggests that it is the Assyrian chronology in need of revision. By identifying places where adjustments to the Assyrian timeline can produce the desired harmony, this book calls for revising ancient Near East chronology. Author's Comment: "Most people, even famous pastors, rabbis, and other Christian and Jewish leaders, are not aware that the chronology featured in their study Bible and favorite Bible commentary is not based on the Bible, but instead on secular Assyrian chronology as developed from archeological finds made in the 1800s. Over the years, to achieve harmony with that secular Assyrian timeline, Bible scholars have compressed the biblical timeline to fit into Assyrian history, and to do so they have had to say that the biblical text contains errors. Even the best of the modern Bible expositors have accepted a chronology that supports the view of a Bible that is flawed, at least chronologically. That's why I feel this book is important. It shows that the error is not with the Bible but instead with the secular Assyrian chronology, and then it shows how the biblical chronology can be used to re-align the Assyrian timeline before 745 BCE in order to better understand ancient Near East history."

Book excerpt: For centuries the Hebrew Bible has been the fountainhead of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Today, however, the entire biblical tradition, including its historical veracity, is being challenged. Leading this assault is a group of scholars described as the "minimalist" or "revisionist" school of biblical studies, which charges that the Hebrew Bible is largely pious fiction, that its writers and editors invented "ancient Israel" as a piece of late Jewish propaganda in the Hellenistic era. In this fascinating book noted Syro-Palestinian archaeologist William G. Dever attacks the minimalist position head-on, showing how modern archaeology brilliantly illuminates both life in ancient Palestine and the sacred scriptures as we have them today. Assembling a wealth of archaeological evidence, Dever builds the clearest, most complete picture yet of the real Israel that existed during the Iron Age of ancient Palestine (1200 600 B.C.). Dever's exceptional reconstruction of this key period points up the minimalists' abuse of archaeology and reveals the weakness of their revisionist histories. Dever shows that ancient Israel, far from being an "invention," is a reality to be discovered. Equally important, his recovery of a reliable core history of ancient Israel provides a firm foundation from which to appreciate the aesthetic value and lofty moral aspirations of the Hebrew Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book utilizes a new harmonized chronology for the reigns of the thirty-eight kings and one queen who ruled during the period of the divided monarchies of Israel and Judah. The new Hebrew kings chronology was made possible by recent biblical research that applied information contained in the Book of Daniel to identify the date for the beginning of the divided kingdoms period as 961 BCE, not the 931 BCE date derived from the traditional Assyrian chronology used throughout modern academia. The new Hebrew chronology based on using the 961 BCE starting date for the Hebrew kingdoms period allows construction of a more accurate reference timeline for the reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah than possible using traditional Assyrian-anchored chronology. By employing the new and more accurate Hebrew kings chronology, along with the latest chronological data developed by modern scholars for the reigns of non-Hebrew kings in the nations surrounding Israel during the biblical time period, this book compares the regnal chronologies of Egypt, Assyria, Tyre, Babylon, and Urartu with the new Hebrew regnal timeline. The new Hebrew chronology and traditional Egyptian chronology yield agreement when compared with one another. However, comparison of the resulting Hebrew-Egyptian synchronized timeline with traditional Assyrian chronology reveals that there are thirty eponyms (and thus thirty years) missing from the Assyrian timeline as derived from the Eponym List and Chronicles, and it identifies where those missing years can be found (between the end of the reign of Shalmaneser III and the currently-accepted start of the reign of Tiglath-pileser III). In so doing, this book shows that the biblical text is the most accurate and trustworthy ancient source text available for doing chronological research and historical studies, and demonstrates that the biblical timeline can be used to calibrate other chronologies in the ancient Near East. (updated September 15, 2013) Note: The chronological interpretations in this book are the result of original Bible research. They are not restatements of interpretations that you will have already read in popular Bible commentaries. The interpretations match both the biblical text and recorded history exactly. Also, it should be noted that the interpretations are NOT based on, derivative of, or associated with the work of any of the following groups or persons who have been active in the field of sacred chronology: The Watchtower Society, The Seventh-day Adventist Church, The LDS Church, The Institute for Creation Research and similar creationist groups, Donovan Courville, Rolf Furuli, David Rohl, Peter James, Immanuel Velikovsky, and similar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is becoming increasingly popular among the intelligentsia to claim that treasured Bible history is nothing more than a myth. Proponents conclude that since the church is unsure of when these events transpired, perhaps they never happened in the first place. Unfortunately, this alarming trend appears to be gaining more acceptance in our seminaries and churches. The True Bible Timeline seeks to dispel such notions by providing an accurate resource to properly date the Old Testament. The result of a five-year long project, it accurately establishes and painstakingly documents the dates of key Bible figures and events, starting with the Creation of Adam and ending at the Cross of Christ. The complete chronology for 200 Bible events is included in the appendix. Guided by His Wisdom, author R. Craig Bridgforth built this timeline through a meticulous process that allowed him to produce a trustworthy and accurate resource that will enrich studies of the Old Testament with new understanding and insight. Developed almost entirely from Scripture, this reference guide provides a reliable chronology of events and figures from the Old Testament.

Book excerpt: Did the Persian Empire last over 200 years or only 21 years? Was there a period of over 300 years when ancient Egypt did not have a Pharaoh? Was the Persian king Ahasuerus mentioned in the Old Testament, claimed to be Xerxes by many experts, in actuality Cyrus? This book raises these questions by challenging conventional biblical chronology, which relies chiefly on historical information, with an alternative model of the biblical timeline that is based solely on events as described in the Bible. Archaeological and astronomical data are also presented which substantiate this novel approach to biblical history. Astronomical charts and biblical history timelines are in full color to help the serious student of the scriptures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Introduction: As the old adage goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" However, in the case of the traditional chronology for the Ancient Near East (ANE) currently found in textbooks and taught in academia, there is ample evidence that it is broken-or, more to the point, in need of recalibration and realignment prior to the year 745 BCE. The problem arises from the fact that important chronological and historical data have been omitted from the mix. So, in the interest of seeking truth, this book presents an alternative ANE timeline by incorporating all available chronological and historical information, including the well-documented chronological data preserved in the Bible, to provide what your author believes to be a more accurate and complete understanding of ANE chronology and history. The methodology used to assemble the alternative timeline set forth in this book reverses the approach used by secular scholars and theologians. They typically start their harmonization by assuming that the Assyrian timeline is sacrosanct and use it as their base timeline. Then they require the biblical and all other timelines to align with it. The alternative ANE timeline presented in this book assumes instead that the ancient biblical data is the most complete and accurate chronological record and then seeks to harmonize all other timelines with its chronology. A comparison shows that the ancient Hebrew and traditional Egyptian timelines align with one another precisely. On the other hand, when the harmonized Hebrew-Egyptian timeline is compared to the eponym-derived Assyrian timeline, the dates simply do not align. Considering that the Hebrew regnal and the standard Egyptian pharaonic timelines are in agreement, it is logical to conclude that it is the Assyrian timeline that is in error and/or incomplete, with defects that have led to misunderstanding of various aspects of the ANE region's chronology and history before 745 BCE. After that year, all three ancient timelines are in agreement ...
