Synopsis

This book examines the historical record relating to Sennacherib's siege of Lachish and the events leading to the destruction of his army outside Jerusalem. The author discusses the reasons why this particular campaign stands out in biblical and archaeological accounts, and explores the historicity of the biblical record through the lens of archaeological evidence. The book aims to shed light on the complex political and military situation in the ancient Near East during the 7th century BC and offers a more nuanced understanding of the events surrounding the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem.
