Walter Brueggemann Quotes

The Exile In July 587 BCE, Babylonian Soldiers Broke Through Jerusalem's Walls, Ending A Starvation Siege That Had Lasted Well Over A Year. They Burned The City And Solomon's Temple And Took Its King And Many Other Leaders To Babylon As Captives, Leaving Others To Fend For Themselves In The Destroyed Land. Many Surrounding Countries Disappeared Altogether When Similar Disasters Befell Them. But Judah Did Not. Instead, The Period Scholars Most Often Call The "Babylonian Exile" Inspired Religious Leaders To Revise Parts Of Scripture That Had Been Passed Down To Them. It Also Sparked The Writing Of Entirely New Scriptures And The Revision Of Ideas About God, Creation, And History. Much Of What Is Called The Hebrew Scriptures Or Old Testament Was Written, Edited, And Compiled During And After This National Tragedy.
