| | Sargon is Sennacherib |
| | But that is by no means the impression that one gains from Tobit 1, which seems to point to Sennacherib's assassination at the hands of his two sons as having occurred not very long after his army's defeat by the Jews; a scenario that I think is supported by Kings and Tobias. | | | This omission is surprising since Sennacherib was unquestionably [sic] the legitimate heir of Sargon II. | | | And I suggest it can be accounted for only if Sennacherib be merged with Sargon, who, at the very beginning of his reign had to undo the unpopular policies of his hated predecessor, Shalmaneser. |

| | A BABYLONIAN PERSPECTIVE ON SENNACHERIB AND HIS GRAND VIZIER |
| | If Bel-ibni, whom Sennacherib also calls 'the son of a master-builder' [28], were in fact the same as Ahikar (Bel-akhi-erba), son of Anael, then his elevation to rulership of Babylon would not be surprising. | | | One indication that I may be on the right track in attempting to merge the C12th BC king of Babylon, Nebuchednezzar I, with the C8th BC king of Assyria, Sennacherib, is that one finds during the reign of 'each' a vizier of such fame that he was to be remembered for centuries to come. | | | A possible explanation, given the dearth of genealogical material for Ninurta-nadin-shumi [16], is that he was actually Ashur-nadin-shumi, son of Sennacherib, whose name actually precedes Sennacherib's in a second phase of the latter's as ruler of Babylon, as given in the Xth Babylonian Dynasty list [17]. |

| | When Sennacherib's son was then assassinated, Sennacherib redoubled his attacks on Elam and Babylonia, finally sacking venerable Babylon. | | | In Babylonia, repeated revolts led Sennacherib to create an Assyrian navy—unprecedented for this land-bound nation—to attack Babylonia's eastern ally Elam by sea. | | | Sennacherib claimed to have suppressed a revolt by Judah and its western allies, taking booty and tribute, whereas the Bible reports an abrupt Assyrian withdrawal without taking Jerusalem, perhaps reflecting an unsuccessful second campaign that Sennacherib failed to mention. |

F.M. Cross and G.E.
