“Note: None of the secular experts quoted in this article hold that Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 B.C.E.”

Notes. Printed by the organisation itself. Any statement that the organisation conceals the absence of scholarly support for 607 BCE is wrong; the concession is in the article.

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

1 de noviembre de 2011 · p.27 · pars. 35-36 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“At present, the majority of secular historians believe that Jerusalem was destroyed in 587 B.C.E. However, the Bible writers Jeremiah and Daniel clearly state that the Jews were in exile for 70 years, not 50 years. (Jeremiah 25:1, 2, 11; 29:10; Daniel 9:2) Those statements strongly indicate that Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 B.C.E. As the above evidence shows, that conclusion has some secular support.”

The closing section, headed “Why Trust the Bible?”, continues: “Secular experts have repeatedly questioned the Bible’s accuracy. Yet, when more evidence is uncovered, the Bible record has time and again been vindicated.”
