Australian Author rewrites 8th Century BCE Middle Eastern History
Australian Author rewrites 8th Century BCE Middle Eastern History, claiming both the Bible and History textbooks are wrong.
In an article published at King's Calendar Australian Author R.P.BenDedek, (The King's Calendar:The Secret of Qumran), states that 8th Century BCE Middle Eastern history as currently taught, is wrong, because Academics have relied too much on Bible Stories.
Describing Academic vision as too narrow, and accusing historians of failing to go outside their academic boxes, BenDedek, in rewriting selected historical passages, demonstrates that three successive kings of Judah (Israel) are misidentified in the Bible, because their names all look too alike in Hebrew.
He states that the chronological data demonstrates that the Bible is in error in its' references to 'Jotham, (Jehoahaz) Ahaz (Ahaziah) and Hezekiah', three successive Judaean kings who reigned between 742 and 687 BCE.
Maintaining that paucity of Assyrian records has forced Academics to rely on Bible stories, BenDedek states that in doing so, they have compounded the problem.
Whilst neither Academics nor religious believers will be pleased with his re-writing of the Bible, BenDedek maintains that his apologetics are both logical and demonstrably effective.

About the KingsCalendar Publisher
R.P.BenDedek is the owner and Editor of KingsCalendar.com which was originally set up to publicize his research results into the Chronology of Ancient Israel. Those results were published under the title: 'The King's Calendar: The Secret of Qumran'.
Whilst there have been many attempts to solve the chronological riddle of the Bible's synchronisms of reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah and their synchronism with other Ancient Near Eastern Nations, no other research is based on a simple mathematical formula which could, if it is incorrect, be disproved easily. To date, no one has been able to dismiss the mathematical results of this research.
