This is nicely done, thank you. The first deportation is most commonly cited as being 597 BC, you present it (in graphic and audio) as 579 BC. Since you have the second wave as 587-586 BC and the third wave as 582 BC, I think the more recent date for the first wave was merely an oversight. Thanks again.
Another note .... isn’t the Babylonian captivity the period of the long Sabbath where Israel would lie fallow (for the land to recover)? I’m a seminary student taking an Old Testament survey course and after a while it all seems to run together. Biblical continuity??? Thank you for the effective illustration of the times.

Yes you are correct. God commended Israel to let the land rest every 7 years and for 490 years they did not, so the 70 years was God doing it for them via exile!
Whew! This whole period of Biblical history is a jumble to me. This helps me to sort it out a bit. Even with aids like this I’d hate to have to teach it in Sunday school. 🤣 MikeinMinnesota
2:07 This is a direct fulfillment of what the Lord told Solomon way back in 1 Kings ! He and his descendants were unfaithful and God is keeping His word concerning the covenant ! “ But if you or your descendants abandon me and disobey the commands and decrees I have given you, and if you serve and worship other gods, then I will uproot Israel from this land that I have given them. I will reject this Temple that I have made holy to honor my name. I will make Israel an object of mockery and ridicule among the nations. And though this Temple is impressive now, all who pass by will be appalled and will gasp in horror. They will ask, ‘Why did the Lord do such terrible things to this land and to this Temple?’ “And the answer will be, ‘Because his people abandoned the Lord their God, who brought their ancestors out of Egypt, and they worshiped other gods instead and bowed down to them. That is why the Lord has brought all these disasters on them.’” 1 Kings 9:6-9
We need a movie or a TV series about the persian Empire. I am tired of watching every empire except the greatest and the biggest empire in the world where 44% of the world population was in the persian empire and this great empire is not even in Atlas. I am tired of vikings movies, the English Empire movie, and how come they didn't make a movie or TV series about Persian Empire. with such a great man and his accomplishments will make a great Hollywood or netflix movie. I will make one if they don't because it looks like we have to start waiting for others who won't do anything...

Thanks Adam! Appreciate you taking the time to let me know of that mistake. You are for sure right! Have a great day.
First deportation: 597BC. You place the first deportation after the second deportation.

Glad to help! Ha ha! I literally just taught this in Sunday School last week, no joke! The timeline does help, but it's a headful!
Thank you for your quick and kind response. It’s gratifying to know that there’s “Someone out there.” Blessings, Mike

If this is true why can we go up to space and not find god?
God is not physical. Space is still part of the physical realm
Why do you always refer to Judah or the southern kingdom and disregard Israel the northern kingdom?
There is another video on the Northern Kingdom. This video is about the Babylonian Captivity of Judah, the Southern Kingdom.
