When do scholars think it likely the Babylonian Captivity occurred?

A:Historians regard the following dates as firm, given a margin of perhaps one year or so: Jerusalem surrendered in 597 BCE, and thousands were deported, but Babylonian control over Jerusalem was short-lived.Babylon again besieged Jerusalem and in 586 BCE a substantial part of the remaining population of Jerusalem was deported. This is considered to be the start of the Babylonian Exile.Some Jewish religious scholars place the Babylonian Captivity later than this, thereby resolving certain contradictions in the Bible.Archaeologists and other scholars support the historical view.

What bible scripture second time Jerusalem destroyed?

The first time could be in Luke chapter 21. though many people say that this is the second time also.But another scripture for the second time that jerusalem is destroyed could be Daniel 7.21 and 25, where the saints who are the citizens of the New Jerusalem are prevailed against and worn out by the antichrist.Answer:The first destruction of Jerusalem occurred in the days of Jeremiah, sent to warn the people to repent, when the Jews refused and went into Babylonian captivity for 70 years. This is recorded in the book of Jeremiah.The second destruction of Jerusalem by Rome in 70a.d., however, isn't recorded in the Bible... though some believe Matthew 24, Luke 21 and Mark 13 prophesy of it. Jerusalem's second destruction is more a matter of accounts of world historians than biblical inspiration.Zechariah's chapter 14 prophecy sets the time of a future destruction of Jerusalem during the "Day of the Lord"... the prophetic time frame of the coming of Christ as King of kings to establish Salvation and the Government of God on earth over all the nations of the world. A prophecy that has yet to occur:"The LORD will be King OVER THE WHOLE EARTH..." (Zech.14:9 NIV).At the time of this destruction, the Mount of Olives is prophesied to "split in two" from east to west, and in an earthquake-like description [verse 4-5]... physically move north and south, forming a great valley. [again, a prophecy that hasn't happened yet]Zechariah's chapter 14 prophecy of Jerusalem's destruction is obviously not the second destruction of Jerusalem by "Rome" in 70a.d... but speaks of it being its LAST:"It will be inhabited; never again will it be destroyed. Jerusalem will be secure." (verse 11)So, Jerusalem's second destruction [in 70a.d.] isn't in the Bible.Jeremiah records the first one... and Zechariah prophesies of the last one, just before the Lord returns with the Kingdom of God [the gospel, good news message of God]."Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD Almighty, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles." (verse 16) [this didn't happen after Rome destroyed Jerusalem the second time... nor has it been a yearly occurrence by all the nations of the world, since]
