Y'know what's really impressive about that? Apparently Yahweh was so good at distracting Sennacherib that two decades passed between him leaving Jerusalem and him getting killed by his sons...

Siege: 701 BCE. Death: 681 BCE.

@ Geds - really ? tell more.

@ Steve and Yahweh - I think we need to do something special to mark your joint 100th killing birthday later this week.
I was thinking of sacrificing a first born male goat without any defects for you both, but I'm not exactly sure how to go about it.

Any ideas/requests/instructions ?

Um, that's really all there is. Sennacherib hit Judah around 701 BCE. He knocked a city or two over and did lay siege to Jerusalem. But he had to go deal with other stuff before Jerusalem gave up.

The rest of his reign was spent fighting in other parts of his realm. Then in 681 he was assassinated in a move that had absolutely nothing to do with his involvement in Jerusalem.

So, basically, god's vengeance is like Kramer's from that one episode of Seinfeld where he removed the anti-dessicant packets from the coats. Twenty years from now those coats are gonna dry right up.

Wow; chronology is even screwed up in the Old Testament!

Somebody (wink, wink) needs to compile a list of all the historical errors in the Bible...

Why do people rent their clothes in the Bible?
Because they can't afford to buy them.)


Funny thing about it. In the spanish version (I'm a native spanish speaker ) it says that he tore his clothes apart.
