Tractate Sanhedrin, Page 95a "SIEGE AT THE GATES"
In earlier Episodes we learnt of a monumental, yet little known saga in the royal chronicles of King David. Forced to make a fateful decision, the choice to spare his children, nearly costs the Monarch his life.
In the end, an eleventh-hour prayer reversal makes for salvation in the nick of time.
In this new Episode, before returning to the original narrative about Sennacherib's Siege on Jerusalem, we first complete the story of that selection undone. A reversal that leads to deadly consequences as ultimately turnabout becomes fair pray. One survivor shields another, while generational justice for genocide is brutally applied.
Then it's back to the future; as Assyria's Emperor arrives in a blood-lust to lay siege on our Golden City. Armed with an abundance of sophisticated weaponry, superior firepower, a shamelessly perverse service accompaniment, and historic numbers.
Here we unpack the incredible story of their extraordinary advance, that recalls the past as it rflects into the future -- setting the stage for one of the most dramatic transformations in the biblical narrative, and all of Jewish history.
This Episode, very much a continuation of earlier segments, brings previous narratives to their fascinating conclusions. It fits right into the cadence of these exceptional Talmud teachings on the tenth chapter of Tractate Sanhedrin; Perek Chelek.
