The Annals of Sennacherib: A Faithful Modern English Reader's Edition Based on the Classic Translation of Daniel David Luckenbill - Couverture souple
Synopsis
The Annals of Sennacherib presents a faithful modern English reader’s edition of the ancient Assyrian inscriptions connected with Sennacherib, king of Assyria from 705 to 681 B.C. Based on the classic translation of Daniel David Luckenbill, this edition has been carefully revised for clarity, readability, and usefulness to the modern reader.
Sennacherib was one of the most powerful rulers of the ancient Near East. His campaigns, building projects, and royal inscriptions provide a vivid window into the world of Assyria, Babylon, Nineveh, Judah, Lachish, and Jerusalem. These texts are especially valuable for students of Scripture, pastors, teachers, and readers interested in the historical backdrop of the Old Testament.
This edition includes Sennacherib’s royal annals, historical records, building inscriptions, excerpts from the Babylonian Chronicle, and related Hellenistic sources. The language has been modernized while preserving the substance, structure, and force of the original translation. Archaic expressions have been updated, difficult ancient terms clarified, and repeated technical language made easier to understand.
Readers will find important background for the biblical accounts of Hezekiah and Sennacherib, especially the Assyrian invasion of Judah, the siege of Lachish, and the threat against Jerusalem recorded in 2 Kings, 2 Chronicles, and Isaiah. Sennacherib’s inscriptions offer the Assyrian side of these events, including his famous claim that Hezekiah was shut up in Jerusalem “like a caged bird.”
This volume is not a new critical translation from the Akkadian, but a modern English reader’s edition based on Luckenbill’s important public-domain work. It is designed for those who want a clear, accessible, and faithful presentation of one of the most significant collections of Assyrian royal inscriptions.
Features include:
A modern English presentation of Luckenbill’s classic translation
Historical and building inscriptions of Sennacherib
Excerpts from the Babylonian Chronicle and Hellenistic sources
Helpful background for biblical studies and ancient Near Eastern history
Glossary of ancient terms and names
Index of proper names and places
For readers of biblical history, ancient Assyria, and the world of the Old Testament, The Annals of Sennacherib remains an important witness to the power, pride, violence, and ambition of the Assyrian Empire.
