How long did the two Hebrew kingdoms last?

Answer 1

It hasn't ended. It began around 2000 BCE and it's still around today. As of 2012 there are about 14 million Jews in the world, mostly living in Israel, with a significant population in North America.

Answer:The traditional date for the Destruction of the First Temple is 422 BCE. They entered the Holy Land in 1272 BCE.

Answer 2

We can not be entirely sure when the kingdoms of Israel and Judah began, because many scholars dispute the biblical account of the origins of the Hebrew kingdoms and say that they were always separate nations. The Bible says that a United Monarchy existed under kings Saul, David and Solomon, ending in an acrimonious split about 920 BCE.

The northern kingdom, Israel, was destroyed by the Assyrians in 722 BCE. Based on the biblical account of the death of Solomon and the founding of the independent kingdom of Israel, this kingdom lasted for just two hundred years.

The southern kingdom, Judah was overrrun by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. It had lasted for about 334 years, according to the Bible.

Answer 3

Traditional chronology states that the Kingdom of Judah (after the split) lasted for 374 years (796-422 BCE).

The Kingdom of Israel (Ten Tribes; Northern Kingdom) lasted for 241 years (796-555 BCE) after they split from Judah.
Before the split, both constituted a single nation for an additional 82 years.

Non-traditional chronology places all these events at an earlier time.

Answer 5

The two Hebrew kingdoms, Israel and Judah, lasted for several centuries. Israel existed from around 930 to 722 BCE, while Judah lasted from around 930 to 586 BCE. So, if you do the math, that's a good chunk of time for some good old biblical drama.
