Regal Year edit

This states that the Regal Year in Judah started in Tishrei, rather than in Nissan. What is the source for this?--87.70.118.103 (talk) 21:17, 7 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hoshea edit

"Tiglath-Pileser in an inscription mentions the slaying of Hoshea by his fellow Israelites." The Hoshea article states "It is likely that Hoshea, disappointed by the lack of Egyptian support, endeavored to avert the calamity by resuming the payment of tribute, but that, distrusted, he was forced to fight, and was taken prisoner in battle. ...What happened to Hoshea following the end of the kingdom of Israel, and when or where he died, is unknown." Is then Pritchard accurately cited here or is Pekah meant? Mannanan51 (talk) 20:29, 27 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
