The Chronicle does not refer to Jerusalem directly but mentions a City of Iaahudu, interpreted to be City of Judah. The Chronicle states:In the seventh year (of Nebuchadnezzar) in the month Chislev (Nov/Dec) the king of Babylon assembled his army, and after he had invaded the land of Hatti (Turkey/Syria) he laid siege to the city of Judah. On the second day of the month of Adar (16 March) he conquered the city and took the king (Jeconiah) prisoner. He installed in his place a king (Zedekiah) of his own choice, and after he had received rich tribute, he sent forth to Babylon. 2 Chronicles 36:5-10

Possessing a digital replica of the Babylonian Jerusalem Chronicle empowers both researchers and enthusiasts to explore a monumental artifact at the crossroads of biblical and Mesopotamian history, ensuring its legacy and accessibility for the modern age.
