A City Under Siege
Two accounts give the same siege with the same dates, to the day. Convert them and the duration falls out — and everything else follows from how long a city has to feed itself.
Reference: 2 Kings 25:1–10 · Jeremiah 52:4–14 · deportation figures at Jeremiah 52:28–30
The dates are stated to the day. The siege begins in the tenth month, tenth day of the ninth year, and the wall is breached in the fourth month, ninth day of the eleventh year. Everything else on this page — the population, the stores, the ration, the spring — is supplied.
