The Watchtower, “When Was Ancient Jerusalem Destroyed?—Part Two”

1. November 2011 · p.23 · pars. 12-15 and box · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“There are gaps in the history recorded in the Babylonian chronicles. … Logically, then, the question arises, How reliable are deductions based on such an incomplete record?”

The accompanying box, “THE BABYLONIAN CHRONICLES—A HISTORY WITH GAPS”, states: “The Babylonian chronicles provide an account for only 35 years of the Neo-Babylonian period, traditionally presumed to span some 88 years.” The text quotes R. H. Sack that historians must probe “secondary sources . . . in the hope of determining what actually happened.”

Insight on the Scriptures, Volume 1, “Chronology”

1988 · pp.453-454 · under “Babylonian Chronology” · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“In view of all these factors it is certainly not wise to insist that the traditional figures for the reigns of the Neo-Babylonian kings be received as definite.”

The argument is that the Babylonian Chronicle tablets are later copies — citing D. J. Wiseman that one portion is “a copy made in the twenty-second year of Darius … from an older and damaged text”, and that the Neo-Babylonian Chronicle texts are in a script that “does not of itself allow any precise dating”. The same section notes that “For the final 32 years of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign, there are no historical records of the chronicle type except a fragmentary inscription of a campaign against Egypt in Nebuchadnezzar’s 37th year.”
