Kraeling 3 September 14, 437 BC (dated Elul 7) The Hebrew calendar date for King Artaxerxes will change to year 29 on Tishri 1 (which occurred 22 days later). And the Egyptian date as noted above is Payni 9. The Egyptian calendar date for King Artaxerxes will change to year 29 on Thoth 1 (which occurred 86 days later). Another papyrus verifies this change which was written 90 days later in the 29th year of King Artaxerxes.

723 BC AND THE END OF NORTHERN ISRAEL One of the most controversial or, at least, most difficult to pin down is the date for the captivity of Hoshea the last king of northern Israel. In establishing any date of the Bible there are variables, which cannot be known. In this case, those variables are many. The Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy say almost nothing about the events around the captivity. Kenneth Bergland lays out some of the difficulties that must be overcome, if we are to establish the date for the destruction of Samaria, the captivity, and death, of Manasseh and that which it is the ends the reigns of the kings of northern Israel and the commencement of the 2520 years. These are, “(1) The apparent conflict in the biblical synchronisms, claiming that Hoshea came to power both in the 20th year of Jotham and the 12th year of Ahaz, and that the end of his reign and the fall of Samaria coincided with the 6th year of Hezekiah. (2) The apparent conflict between the biblical material and the Babylonian Chronicle saying that Shalmaneser V was the conqueror of Samaria, and the Assyrian sources claiming it was Sargon II. (3) The claim in the Assyrian sources that Sargon II defeated Samaria both in his accession year and in his second year. (4) The lack of information on the reign of Shalmaneser V in the Assyrian sources. (5) The number and date of Samarian rebellions and Assyrian campaigns against Samaria. (6) The date of Hoshea’s imprisonment; prior to or at the end of his nine year reign, before, during or after the three year siege of Samaria.” 1 I think that his list is incomplete. Even in just dating the reign of the kings of Judah and Israel, we have an extremely large number of variables. Further points which must be considered are, (1) the reckoning system used by both the king of Israel (Hoshea) and the king of Judah (Hezekiah) as spring to spring or fall to fall; (2) establishing the commencement of Hoshea’s reign (how long was the interregnum between Pekah and Hoshea? That is, is the commencement of the reign of Hoshea that is described as commencing in the 12th year of Ahaz counted as Hoshea’s accession year, or his first year?); (3) establishing whether it is the captivity, or death, of Hoshea that marks the ninth year or, even, the destruction of the city of Samaria itself; (4) interpreting the Assyrian records and their relation to biblical events (that is. was it Shalmaneser V and/or Sargon II who destroyed Samaria and/or took Israel into captivity); (5) and ultimately determining whether or not this event can be connected prophetically to the rise of the United states 2520 years later in 1798. In taking into account all the variables, there is not one solution, especially when we consider this date in isolation. However, any treatment of the many variables must be consistent which our treatment of the same or similar variables that exist in determining other dates for the events recorded in Scripture. That is, no date exists in isolation. Consistency demands that Israel’s reign is still fall-to-fall and Judah’s reign is still spring-to-spring. I have assumed that the reigns of the kings of Judah have been recorded in the books of 1 and 2 Kings that gives a running total.2 We know when Josiah’s reign ended. It seems it would be easy to count back from there to the 6th year of Hezekiah (in which the Bible says Samaria was taken) and determine the year for the fall of Samaria. However, somewhere between Hezekiah and Josiah Judah changed the reckoning of their kings of from spring-to-spring to fall-to-fall. I have placed this change at the beginning of Manasseh’s reign, assuming this was done as an act of 1
Kenneth Bergland, Analysis and Assessment of Chronological Explanations of the Fall of Samaria, ,p 64-65 I am not convinced that the reigns are totalled based upon the regnal year. That is, it is possible that when the Bible says, for instance, that a king reigned 9 years in Jerusalem, it does not always mean that he died, or was replaced, in the 9th year of his reign. These two will mostly coincide but not always. We find this with the reign of Jehoiakim. The Bible says he reign for 11 years, yet he died two months into his 12th year. His total reign was 11 years and 3 months. Zedekiah also has a reign that is characterised as 11 years. His total reign was 11 years and 5 months. Their reigns are separated by Jehoiachin’s short 3 months and 10 days reign. The short accession year (maybe as little as two weeks) and the two months of his 12 th year allow for a running total of 11 but not 12. Few chronologists take this possibility into account. 2
rebellion in adopting the pagan practises of the now defunct northern kingdom. It can be assumed that there were many who fled from northern Israel at the time of Samaria’s destruction and that it was their influence that led to the change. How the Bible writers account for this, in relationship to the running total, is unknown. We can either add or subtract a year from the running total but it is only a guess. The other option is that Judah continues spring to spring until the end of the last king. This creates other problems but is not impossible. The chronological data that we have from the biblical record is scanty. In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years. Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years. In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes. (2 Kings 17:1, 5-6) And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. (2 Kings 18:9-10) An apparent discrepancy occurs in the plain reading of the text. We must align the 9th year of Hoshea with the 6th year of Hezekiah. Where exactly do they overlap? We could have Hezekiah’s 6 th year begin in the spring of 721 BC with Hoshea’s 9th year beginning in the fall of 722. This would still have Hoshea’s reign commencing in the 12th of Ahaz. This would place the destruction of Samaria somewhere between the spring and fall of 721 BC.
This is probably the most common solution. This would mean that it was Sargon II who destroyed Samaria and carried Israel away captive. If Hoshea’s captivity commenced in 723 BC, it would have had to occur at the beginning of the siege. This would mean is was Shalmaneser V who took Hoshea captive, breaking the pride of power of Israel and thus marking the commencement of the the 2520 years for northern Israel. This would make these verses understandable. And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison. Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years. (2 Kings 17:4-5) The series of events would be these, (1) Hoshea’s captivity in fourth year of Hezekiah (Nisan) in March or April of 723 BC; (2) the siege beginning immediately afterward; (3) the death of Shalmaneser V in January of 721; (4) and the destruction of Samaria in the spring of 721. This is not the only option (it is not my first choice) and I am not sure it is the correct one, but it does agree with all of the data.
