The Royal Quarter and Bullae House
This video by the Megalim Institute, covers the period of King Jehoiakim's reign, from 609 to 598 BCE, the Babylonian advance on Judea, and how King Jehoiakim brazenly destroyed the scroll containing Jeremiah's prophecy and warnings.
Remarkably, the video details the discovery of clay seal impressions containing the names of key figures mentioned in the Bible, providing further proof of the Bible's historical validity.
Overview
In the Bible
...Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah begged the king not to burn the scroll, but he would not listen to them. The king ordered Jerahmeel, the king’s son, and Seraiah son of Azriel, and Shelemiah son of Abdeel, to arrest the scribe Baruch and the prophet Jeremiah.
"וְגַם֩ אֶלְנָתָ֨ן וּדְלָיָ֤הוּ וּגְמַרְיָ֨הוּ֙ הִפְגִּ֣עוּ בַמֶּ֔לֶךְ לְבִלְתִּ֥י שְׂרֹ֖ף אֶת־הַמְּגִלָּ֑ה וְלֹ֥א שָׁמַ֖ע אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃ וַיְצַוֶּ֣ה הַ֠מֶּלֶךְ אֶת־יְרַחְמְאֵ֨ל בֶּן־הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ וְאֶת־שְׂרָיָ֣הוּ בֶן־עַזְרִיאֵ֗ל וְאֶת־שֶֽׁלֶמְיָ֨הוּ֙ בֶּֽן־עַבְדְּאֵ֔ל לָקַ֨חַת֙ אֶת־בָּר֣וּךְ הַסֹּפֵ֔ר וְאֵ֖ת יִרְמְיָ֣הוּ הַנָּבִ֑יא..."
