The Punishment



I. See selections from the annals of the Assyrian kings in J.B. Pritchard’s The Ancient Near East on attached pages.
II. See a sampling of “Online Resources” describing the History of the Assyrian Empire’s attack on Yehuda and Shomron (google “Ancient Israelite Kings”, “History of Ahaz,” “History of Hezekiah,” “Hezekiah and the downfall of Judah” etc. and you will come up with pages of references. )

The Assyrian Empire

It was by the Assyrian Empire that the kingdom of Israel was destroyed. Recent annals of Assyrian Kings have been found in which they themselves had their own exploits recorded. In these annals names of ten Hebrew Kings occur: Omri, Ahab, Jehu, Menahem, Pekah, Hoshea, Uzziah, Ahaz, Hezekiah, and Manasseh. Many statements are found which confirm Biblical statements. Nineveh was its capital.

The Neo-Babylonian Empire

This was the Empire that broke the power of Assyria, and, in its westward sweep, destroyed Judah, and conquered Egypt. This empire lasted 73 years (612-539 B.C.). The 70 year prophecy runs from the fall of Jerusalem in 587 B.C. until 517 B.C. at the worship rededication in the Restoration Temple. Cyrus, king of Persia, conquered Babylon in 539 B.C., in 538 B.C. he authorized the return of the Jews to their own land. First return was in 536 B.C.

The Empire's capital was in Babylon. In Isaiah's time Assyria was the dominant power of the world. Babylon was a dependency of Assyria. Babylon rose to world power status and then fell in 539 B.C. Isaiah sang of the Fall of Babylon 100 years before its rise in 612 B.C. (Isa 13:1, 13:19, 14:22). Babylon's splendor as the Queen city of the pre-Christian world, "the glory of kingdoms" and "the city of gold" (Isa. 13:19, 14:4) was clearly envisioned. Babylon's fall is also pictured in detail, naming the unknown Medes as destroyers of Babylon. (Isa. 13:17-19). Babylon was to supersede Assyria (Isa 14:25), Media shall supersede Babylon (Isa 13:17); and Babylon shall pass away forever (Isa 12:19-22, 14:22-23, Dan 5:31).

The Persian Army took Babylon without a battle during the days of Nabonidas and his first son Belshazar.
