jan 1, 605 BC - Arad Ostracon 24
Description:
Jehoiakim was a servant of Nebuchadnezzar for three years, but then he revolted. Apparently other rival nations that had been under Assyrian control were also trying to assert dominance, so bands of Chaldeans, Syrians (or Arameans), Moabites, and Ammonites all attacked Judah. (2 Kings 24:2)
In Arad Ostracon 24, Edom is mentioned as having invaded the south of Judah as far as Ramath-Negev.
