“The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD [Yahweh] after Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard had released him at Ramah. He had found Jeremiah among all the captives from Jerusalem and Judah who were being carried into exile to Babylon”—Jeremiah 40:1 NIV

After Zedekiah, king of Judah, rebelled against Babylonian control in 588 BCE, Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar swiftly responded, capturing Jerusalem the next year.

“In the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month — it was in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon — Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard, a member of the king of Babylon’s staff, entered Jerusalem. He burned down the Temple of Yahweh, the royal palace and all the houses in Jerusalem. Nebuzaradan commander of the guard deported the remainder of the people left in the city, the deserters who had gone over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the common people. But the commander of the guard left some of the poor country people behind as vineyard workers and ploughmen”—2 Kings 25:8-12 NJB read more

CITY GATE DISCOVERED AT SHILOH

“When he mentioned the ark of the God, Eli fell backward off his chair by the side of the city gate.His neck was broken and he died, for he was an old man, and he was heavy. He had led Israel forty years”—1 Samuel 4:18 NIV

The remains of a city gate were discovered recently in Shiloh, Israel. This was the place where the Ark of the Covenant was kept during the time of the Judges. The remains of this city gate gate were discovered by the Associates for Biblical Research along the northern wall of this ancient Israelite city. The team discovered that the defensive embankment against the city wall had a gap at this point, where the remains of the gate were discovered. The terrain leading up to this place was internally terraced upward., and  “the city gate” being at this location also makes sense because the main spring that the city’s inhabitants used was located about a kilometer to the north. It is possible that this was “the city gate” where “Eli fell backward off his chair . . . and he died”.

This is just one more example of the thousands of evidences discovered, which independently verify many places and things that are mentioned in the Bible. This mountain of evidence stands in stark contrast to the Book of Mormon, which names many places, things, civilizations, and events, that supposedly existed or happened in the Americas, but have never been independently verified with even the slightest shred of evidence.
