Description:
JONAH VS KING OF NINEVEH: HISTORICAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE by Gerard Gertoux824 BCE. Shalmaneser III was dying, his son Shamshi-Adad V was mandated as new
crown prince to quell the revolt headed by his brother Aššur-danin-pal who led 27 cities including the famous Nineveh. Jonah came to Nineveh at that moment in order to announce a terrible judgment of God if the Ninevites continued their crimes. Aššur- danin-pal (827-820), the king of Nineveh, repented. It is noteworthy that military campaigns westwards immediately ceased (until 765 BCE).
765 BCE. Menahem (771-760), the king of Israel, gave a tribute to the Assyrian king Pulu “heir” (783-746), also called Bar-Gayah “son of majesty” in Aramean (2Ki 15:19-29; 1Ch 5:26), who reigned afterward under the name Tiglath-pil-eser III (745-727).
