Nabonidus and the Bible: Selected Essays

A series of essays developed from material not included in the previous Nabonidus-based monographs. Each assesses one topic, such as the "Ascent of Akrabbim," the name "Naamah," and the potential relationship between Nabonidus' wife, Nitocris II, and the incumbent God's Wife, Ankhnesneferibre. Using the etymology of names and the Hebrew fascination with gematria, the essays reveal even more substantiating evidence for a 6th Century BCE exodus, with Nabonidus, King of Babylon (556-539 BCE) as "Moses," and his son Belshazzar as "Joshua."
