Sorry to deflate your expectations. If you would like to learn more about the Lachish battle and see more of the room, take a look at the site built by our sister organization at: lachish.org/ Thanks for watching; the Learning Sites Team

Sennacherib did not conquer Jerusalem. Judean King Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, and that very night the angel of the Lord killed 185,000 Assyrians. Sennacherib left Jerusalem and returned to Nineveh in shame and was subsequently murdered by two of his sons. He destroyed Lachish successfully, but God prevented the destruction of Jerusalem. This video makes it seem as if Jerusalem was also conquered when it was not. The destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple did take place, but not until 586 BC. It's destruction was carried out by Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians.
Thank you for your comments. Our intention was not to suggest that Sennacherib took Jerusalem; but to recount the story of the Lachish battle and the overlap in the telling of that incident in both Assyrian texts and the Bible. You can see more about that battle and its background at www.lachish.org, created by our sister organization. The Learning Sites Team.
We also know that Hezekiah and Isaiah did everything to purify and deepen the Israelites' faith in Yahweh/KhaShem, and that they knew very well what was written in Sennacherib's annals and adapted their history according to these scriptures. Sennacherib only wanted to depose the idolatrous Ahaz and install the righteous Hezekiah, and when this was done he withdrew his army without having fired a single arrow at Jerusalem therefore that Sennacherib was as much a Jew as Hezekiah and Isaiah combined. "KhaShem" is Assyrian and means Kha 1 Shem, 1 is His name, or Shemmo Kha ile.@@learningsites
