		However, verse 13 of the same chapter states that Sennacherib invaded Judah in the fourteenth year of Hezekiah; the Assyrian records leave no doubt that this invasion took place in 701 BC, which would fix 715 BC as Hezekiah's initial year, which would be confirmed by the account of his illness.
		By W.F. Albright's calculations, Jehu's initial year is 842 BC; and between it and Samaria's destruction the books of Kings give the total number of the years the kings of Israel ruled as 143 7/12, while for the kings of Judah the number is 165.
		This attempts to harmonize the reference to Hezekiah reigning during the conquest of Samaria (2 Kings 18:9-10), and assumes the reference to Sennacherib's attack in 701 was either a second campaign or that the reference to it being in Hezekiah's 14th year is a corruption.

		A new and important book about the 701 BC rescue of Jerusalem from the Assyrians is getting positive reviews in the media and among scholars.

		At that time Jerusalem was the last remaining city in the kingdom of Judah that had not been desolated by the Assyrian army under the command of King Sennacherib.

		In the summer of 701 BC, the powerful Assyrian army laid siege to Jerusalem, threatening the Hebrew kingdom with destruction.
		Now, in this ground-breaking account, award-winning writer Henry Aubin proves beyond doubt that Jerusalem was saved by the army of the Kushite pharaoh of Egypt, made up largely of fl Africans also known as Nubians, from what is now Sudan.
		Led by the great general Taharqa, who would go on to become a pharaoh himself, this African army seldom figures in modern biblical scholarship -- the result, Aubin argues, of a racist campaign over the last two centuries to erase the Kushite contribution to Israel’s survival.
