    Fascinating subject because my old religion (Jehovah's Witness) hangs so much of their religion on 607bce - 1914 as "proving" their appointment as God's only true religion today. Clearly the evidence in the Dead Sea Scrolls debunks this, and so many cuneiform tablets. I've got the book, excellent.

      You can be a potato if it fits your mental health requirements, but I'll pass.😉
      I come from a highly religious family. My grandfather, father, and brother are Freewill Baptist preachers.
      I know the bible and its origins much better than you could hope.
      I became atheist after extensive study of the bible, religious history in general, and after using critical thinking skills to unbiasly challenge the beliefs taught me as a vulnerable child.
      I was extremely indoctrinated with the belief in Hell as a child. It took lots of evidence before I knew without a doubt that atheism was truly the correct position. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to say with ease and confidence:
      Damn the holy ghost!😬😱🤭
      Matthew 12:31-32
      There, I just cancelled anything u think jesus did and can't be forgiven. Just shows how weak your beliefs are. It also shows how insecure and immoral your imaginary god would be to forever torture someone for blasphemy. Even modern human justice systems don't torture people for blasphemy (free speech), yet u think your imaginary god would.
      Get a clue. Your imaginary god is immature and immoral, because it is a fictional character created by psychologically immature, immoral, and primitive humans.(just like Santa🤫🎅)
      I only hope that one day u take some time to realize that you have no good justification to believe in imaginary friends anymore.
      It's about time we all started to grow up and use reason over immaturity.
      Good luck.
      Have a good life.

      The Bible itself says prophecy that is not fulfilled is false. What you call Yahweh's word I call men's word. Whether reading Hebrews' writings as the Hebrews did or with modern cultural inclinations, metaphorically or literally, it is cruel and brutal, immoral and unethical. The "rationalist" does *not* and will *not* "believe" any writings just because they're written down, or anything on radio/tv/internet/newspapers/whatever just because it's on whatever, evidence required. We know some people lie and everyone makes mistakes; that's why science is so careful to check and recheck everything, giving respect (not deification) to those who advance knowledge.
      I'll take rationalism over whatever power hungry men claim "Yahweh says" (Simon says, Allah says, Krishna says, Kali says), especially when they quote from verifiably faulty literature.

    Curiously the Aramaic sections of the Book of Daniel (chapter 2:4 through chapter 6:27 and also chapter 7:13-28) are where a lot of sloppy history can be found regarding the person of Nebuchadrezzar II (c. 642 - 562 BCE) and his son ‘Nabunarayid’ aka ‘Nabodinos’ (c. 599 - 539 BCE) - possibly due to sloppy transliteration (NABUCHADREZZAR / NEBUCHADNESSAR could easily become confus’d in the Aramaic transliteration process to NABUCH-DENASS(R) aka Nabodinus- the two names (Nabu Keduri Usar = ‘may Nabu (the god of writing) protect my eldest son’ and (Nabu-Nayid = ‘Praise be to Nabu’) share a lot of Akkadian phonemes in common
    Either way it is clear that the author(s) of our canonical book of Daniel (having come down to us as a literary collaboration in 2 separate languages for different parts of the book) were not writing ‘positivistic history’ in the modern sense but rather were compiling moral/didactic narratives whose final editing (‘Endgestalt’) took place sometime around 154 BCE during the reign of the Syrian Greek Antiochus III ‘Ho Epiphanios’ (‘the revealer’ I.e. of divine mysteries) and it is this historical personage against which the final editor(s) had their biggest axe to grind …

    Ladies and gentlemen, although Mr. Bowen is intelligent, and his research is extensive and zealous,it is not according to knowledge. He sadly is woefully incomplete in his research. Of the very learned, learned, average, and beginner, he is on the level of average. Nebuchadnezzar did conquerer Tyre. Understand that there were divisions of Tyre. Mr. Bowen falls quite short in his research. Josh read John Nelson Darby, William Kelly, F.W. Grant, etc... You tubers not all the time, but most of the time you will only get the average learners on this platform. Again Josh Tyre was positively to conquered by the king of Babylon. Go back and complete your research son.

      So many questions in life are honestly answered "I don't know". Less than yesterday, more than tomorrow, we are always learning. We can also make up stories to satisfy little children or ourselves, while still seeking the truth. But adults can function knowing they don't know everything; they can make decisions on the best information available fully aware some information is missing. The more we learn, the more we question. Life continues to be mysterious and satisfying.
