The Book of Shadrach predicts the fall of the Egyptian Empire and the end of Assyrian influence, meaning they must have still been around at the time. The book also lists Sidon and Tyre as having defences, meaning it was before the cities were conquered by ... Read more

    The Book of the Hammer

    Unabridged

    2 hours 9 min
