Archaeological discovery helps prove Babylonian conquest of Israel

The current find is one of the oldest and perhaps the most prominent in its historical significance, as the Babylonian conquest of Jerusalem is a major moment in Jewish history.

In 587/586 BC the Babylonian Empire took the city of Jerusalem with extreme violence, a crucial event spoken about in the Old Testament.

“The current find is one of the oldest and perhaps the most prominent in its historical significance, as the Babylonian conquest of Jerusalem is a major moment in Jewish history. The researchers say that the unique mix of artifacts and materials found, together with the way they were found - covered in layers of ash - solidify both the time period” and the destructive event that occurred.

I’m not surprised, and I’m glad this discovery has been made, because I get sick of people trying to explain away the historicity of the Bible.
