seventy years
Cf. Leviticus 26:33-35; II Chronicles 36:21; Daniel 9:2 The 70 years may be reckoned to begin with the first deportation of Judah to Babylon. II Kings 24:10-15. BC 604 according to the Assyrian Eponym Canon, or BC 606 according to Ussher; or from the final deportation ; II Kings 25:1-30; II Chronicles 36:17-20; Jeremiah 39:8-10. BC 586 (Assyr. Ep. Canon), or BC 588 (Ussher). In the first case the 70 years extend to the decree of Cyrus for the return Ezra 1:1-3 BC (Assyr. Ep. Canon), or BC 536 (Ussher). In the second case the 70 years terminate BC 516 (Assyr.Ep. Canon) with the completion of the temple. The latter is more probable reckoning in the light of Daniel 9:25.
