Hi, my name is Oded Lipschits.

I'm a professor of Jewish history and the director of the Sonia and

Marco Nadler Institute of Archaeology at Tel Aviv University.

This course, the fall and rise of Jerusalem

deals with one of the dark ages in the history of Judah and the Judeans.

The Exilic Period of Babylonian rule of Judah, the period of the empty land,

the time of the Babylonian Gap.

Indeed the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem sealed the fate of Judah for

generations afterwards, shaped the national consciousness, the people's

perception of the religion and ritual and the nation's way of historical memory.

It was a period that comprises the most important turning point

in the history of Judah and the Judeans in the first millennial BCE.

However, the destruction, exile and national crisis

were the beginning of a new stage in the history of the people and the land.

This was the beginning of a new Judaism.

The Judaism of the Second Temple period.

The destruction of Jerusalem and the deportation of the royal house and

the old elite, where the opportunity to form new elite and

alternate local leadership, to form other government in called centers.

And to develop new theological ideas justifying

the people who remained in their right of the land.

The main object of this course is to present a comprehensive and inclusive

profile, insofar as possible, of the period of the Babylonian rule over Judah,

and to emphasize that the exilic period is not a time to forget but

a period of historical, archaeological, and

theological bridge between the first and the second temple period.

With the assistance of some of my colleagues, archaeologists and

biblical scholars, we will explore the various aspects and

subjects of this time span based on the archaeological data, on critical

examination of the biblical accounts and on analysis of the extra biblical sources.

I will reconstruct a balance picture of this fascinating period,

emphasizing the changes side by side with the continuity in the place of it.

It's the connecting link between Judah,

the Judahites and the Judaism of the first and

second temple periods.
