The Neo-Babylonian Empire expanded greatly under King Nebuchadnezzar II from 604-562 BCE. He rebuilt Babylon's ziggurat and expanded their territory by driving out the Egyptians from Syria. The Neo-Babylonians made advances in mathematics, astronomy, timekeeping, and invented the first sundial. However, the Persian king Cyrus the Great conquered the Neo-Babylonian Empire in 539 BCE, incorporating it into the new Persian Empire.

The Chaldeans & The Babylonians
The Chaldeans were indigenous people of Mesopotamia who spoke Aramaic. After the Assyrian Empire declined, the Chaldeans formed their own empire based in Babylon. The most famous Chaldean ruler was Nebuchadnezzar II, who built famous structures like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and Ishtar Gate. The Chaldeans made advances in astronomy and developed the first known calendar system. Their empire was later conquered by the Persians.
Jericho
The document provides background information on the ancient city of Jericho in Jordan. It describes Jericho's location and history of settlements dating back to 9000 BC. It also discusses the biblical account of the battle of Jericho from the book of Joshua, in which the walls of Jericho miraculously fell after the Israelites marched around them for seven days. Archaeologists have unearthed remains of the city's walls but their collapse as described in the Bible remains uncertain.
The Conquering of the Israelites
The document summarizes the history of the Jews from 722 BC to 132 AD. It describes how the Assyrians and Egyptians conquered the Jewish kingdoms, followed by the Chaldeans who exiled many Jews to Babylon in 597 BC, destroying the Temple of Jerusalem in 586 BC. This began the Jewish Diaspora. The Persians later conquered Babylon and allowed the Jews to return to Judea. The region then came under Greek and Roman rule, with the Romans finally crushing a Jewish revolt in 70 AD and exiling the Jews from Jerusalem.

Ancient Israel (Division and Diaspora)
This PowerPoint presentation was created to accompany a lecture on the division of ancient Israel into two kingdoms (Israel and Judah) and the subsequent conquest of these kingdoms by the Assyrian, Babylonian, and Persian Empires. The fall of Israel and Judah resulted in a diaspora (scattering) of peoples across the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions. After Cyrus the Great of Persia conquered the Babylonian Empire, he allowed Jews to return to Jerusalem to rebuild their temple. In the centuries that followed, a messianic tradition developed, which promised a deliverer who would restore the Kingdom of Judah. Zionism emerged in the late 19th century with a similar goal of restoring a sovereign Jewish homeland. The modern nation of Israel, founded in 1948, represents the realization of the goals of the Zionist movement. To this day, modern Israelis contest over this land with its neighbors much like their ancestors did three thousand years ago.

After the death of King Solomon in 930 BC, the kingdom of Israel split into two kingdoms - Judah and Israel. Over the next 200 years, both kingdoms were defeated by foreign powers - Israel was defeated by the Assyrians and Judah was later defeated by the Chaldeans. The Chaldeans destroyed Solomon's Temple in 586 BC and took many Jews captive to Babylon, marking the beginning of the Jewish exile known as the Babylonian Captivity. Not all Jews returned to Jerusalem after 50 years, and their dispersal outside of Israel and Judah started what is known as the Jewish Diaspora.

Important constructions from the empire are mentioned, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and the Ishtar Gate. The document also summarizes the reigns of Nebuchadnezzar II, Nabonidus, and the fall of Babylon to Cyrus the Great of Persia in 539 BC.
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, built in the ancient city of Babylon in Iraq by King Nebuchadnezzar II between 605-562 BC. According to legend, he built them for his Persian wife who missed the green hills of her homeland. However, there is no definitive archaeological evidence that they existed in Babylon and some historians believe the accounts may have been romanticized descriptions of other gardens from the time period.
The Assyrians and Babylon
The Assyrian Empire arose in Mesopotamia around 900 BC and built a vast empire through their powerful military. They had a well-organized army and government that divided the empire into provinces. The Chaldean king Nebuchadnezzar rebuilt Babylon into an imperial city and led the Chaldean Empire, which controlled much of the Middle East from 606 to 536 BC. Babylon was a massive city with walls, palaces, and the Hanging Gardens, making it the richest city in the world at the time. The Persian Empire conquered Babylon in 539 BC, ending Chaldean rule.
Zelos 3.1
Babylon began as a small village in Mesopotamia but grew to become a major religious and political center, at times being the largest city in the world. Under rulers like Hammurabi and Nebuchadnezzar II, Babylon flourished culturally and economically. However, it also changed hands between various empires through conquest and invasion. By the time of Alexander the Great in 331 BC, Babylon was no longer independent. Though it survived as a regional capital under Persian rule, Babylon never regained its former glory and was eventually abandoned, leaving only ruins behind.
Mesopotamian Empires
The document lists the major empires that ruled in Mesopotamia from 3500 B.C. to 330 B.C., including the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Hittites, Assyrians, Chaldeans, and Persians. It provides some key details about each empire, such as the Hittites being the first to use iron weapons, the Assyrians having a powerful military and conquering large areas, and the Persians adopting a tolerant ruling strategy allowing conquered peoples to keep their cultures. Frequent changes in ruling powers suggest this region was strategically important but also unstable, with empires rising and falling over millennia as new groups asserted control through military dominance

Mesopotamian Empires
There were many changes in power in Mesopotamia over thousands of years as different empires rose and fell. The Hittites were the first to use iron weapons around 1600-900 BC but lost their advantage when iron technology spread. The Assyrians built a powerful militaristic empire from 850-612 BC conquering Egypt, Palestine and Mesopotamia under King Ashurbanipal and constructing a massive capital and library at Nineveh. The Chaldeans or "New Babylonians" then ruled from 612-550 BC under King Nebuchadnezzar, establishing the new capital of Babylon and building the Hanging Gardens. Finally, Cyrus the Great's Persian Empire arose from 550-
Nebuchadnezzar's Dream--The Death Of A Dynasty
The following presentation applies a 'High Context' Lens to Nebuchadnezzar's Dream. This "lens" assumes that Nebuchadnezzar’s dream applied specifically to ancient Israel during the Babylonian Captivity. Nebuchadnezzar's dream thus telescoped a time when his regime would be destroyed and replaced by one that would permit the Israelites to return to their homeland to re-build the temple in preparation for the Messiah. The dream’s interpretation would have had an immediate impact on the morale of Daniel's captive people, since whatever affected the Babylonian administration also impacted them. Therefore Daniel's captive people became the beneficiaries of the "statue’s" destruction! The dream, therefore, had no prophetic relevance beyond Daniel's day. Please visit my website, The Secret Synagogue, for a detailed analysis.
Babylonia Rises Again
Under the Chaldeans, Babylon rose again as the center of the powerful New Babylonian Empire that controlled the entire Fertile Crescent region. The Chaldean king rebuilt Babylon after the Assyrians destroyed it, constructing massive walls, a gigantic palace, and gardens for his wife who disliked the dry climate. Babylon flourished again as a center of learning under the Chaldeans, with astronomers using mathematics to chart stars and farmers raising honey bees. However, in 539 BC the New Babylonian Empire fell to the invading Persians led by Cyrus the Great, though the city of Babylon itself was spared.
The Chaldean Empire
The Chaldean Empire reached its peak under King Nebuchadnezzar in the 6th century BC. Nebuchadnezzar rebuilt Babylon, including constructing the Hanging Gardens of Babylon to please his wife. The gardens, located on a fake mountain with multi-level terraces, went on to become one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Astronomy was an important part of Chaldean culture and religion, with priests studying the stars and using ziggurats to be closer to the heavens. The Chaldeans made many scientific achievements in fields like mathematics, astronomy, and time-keeping systems that are still used today.
Babylonian Civilization
Babylon was an ancient city located in Mesopotamia along the Euphrates River. It was originally a small Akkadian city dating back to 2300 BC but grew to prominence under rulers like Nebuchadnezzar II in the 6th century BC. Babylon was renowned for its architecture like the Hanging Gardens and Ishtar Gate as well as its innovations in astronomy and mathematics. However, the Neo-Babylonian Empire fell when Cyrus the Great of Persia conquered Babylon in 539 BC.

Qur’an and Archeological Discoveries: Evidence from the Near East
This paper examines archaeological evidence that supports references to historical events and places mentioned in the Quran. It discusses uncovered cities like Babylon, Iram, and Saba. It also mentions prophets like Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, and Moses whose names were found on artifacts like the Ebla tablets and Egyptian hieroglyphs. The paper compares stories in the Quran to archaeological discoveries, like accounts of mummification matching what was found in Egypt. Overall, the paper argues that the historical information provided in the Quran agrees with archaeological findings, providing evidence that the Quran is the word of God.

When traveling away from home, the one thing missed most is familiar comforts like plants and mountains from one's homeland. King Nebuchadnezzar built the Hanging Gardens of Babylon for his wife who missed her home. The gardens were one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and included plants and trees. Babylon was a major center of trade, science, and culture during this time period in Mesopotamian civilization.
Babel
Ancient Babylon was located along the Euphrates River in southern Mesopotamia. The Babylon Empire existed between 606-536 BC and was a major power in the region, rivaling the Assyrians. In 587 BC, the Babylonians under King Nebuchadnezzar II destroyed Jerusalem and exiled the Israelites to Babylon. The Israelites remained captives in Babylon for 70 years, as prophesied, until the Persians conquered Babylonia in 538 BC and the Israelites were allowed to return home.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
