Historicity of the Exile in Babylon

Description

Are the historical narratives of the Old Testament a bunch of myths and legends concocted by Jews writing during the Babylonian exile? What is the evidence for the historicity of history according to the Old Testament? This talk explores the historicity of the fall of Jerusalem and the subsequent Jewish exile in Babylon, especially as related in the book of Daniel, as well as the prophesied return from exile.
