  A-3. The most extensive records come from eighteenth-century Mari (mid-Euphrates) and the seventh-century Assyrian empire. There is also evidence of prophecy from second millennium Ebla (northwest Syria), nineteenth-century Uruk (south Babylonia), thirteenth-century Emar (northwest Euphrates), eleventh-century Byblos (north Phoenicia), and eighth-century Hamath (north Syria) and Deir ʿAlla (Jordan Valley).
  A-11. The rationale for the Sabbath is the main difference between the two versions of the commandments: creation in Ex. 20:11, redemption in Deut. 5:15.

conversations.value: Earthen ramps (1:10). The annals of the Assyrian kings contain details of their capture of walled cities (see 2 Kings 19:32; Isa. 37:33; Jer. 6:6). A siege, which could take many months, involved various attack strategies designed to both demoralize the defenders and physically weaken their defenses. Note, for example, Sennacherib's description of the siege of Jerusalem in 701 B.C.: "I besieged forty-six of his [Hezekiah's] fortified walled cities... using packed-down ramps and applying battering rams, infantry attacks by mines, breeches, and siege machines."
  The siege ramp was designed to counteract the construction of mounds of earth placed against the city walls that made any approach too steep for wheeled towers or the effective use of battering rams against city gates. Once this artificial leveling took place, archers could shoot directly into the battlements and those operating the ram could work with safety inside the protective covering of the wheeled tower. The Assyrians had found that it was much more effective to conclude a siege by penetrating the city than to starve it out through blockade.
  Strength is their god (1:11). The ultimate indictment of the Neo-Babylonians is their utter disregard for law, for the sovereignty of other nations and their rulers, and their single-minded mission to garner loot as they sweep like the wind through an area, overwhelming it with their fierce horsemen and chariots. The translation of this phrase is uncertain, and a number of alternatives have been suggested. If the NIV translation is retained, the charge may reflect the pain of those faced with the rapine committed by invading armies, despite the fact that Babylonian inscriptions invariably give credit for military victories to the strength provided to kings by their gods. Thus Nabopolassar extols Nabu and Marduk for aiding him to remove the Assyrian yoke from his land.
  Rock (1:12). Among the titles given to Yahweh are "Holy One," "my fortress," and "Rock" (see Deut. 32:15; 1 Sam. 2:2; Ps. 18:2–4). The reciting of these titles as a litany of thanks is usually part of an acknowledgment of God's saving acts (see Isa. 17:10). Habakkuk draws on this tradition of Yahweh, the creator or "shaper" of life, in expectation that what he has heard about Yahweh will ultimately set aside any thought that God has brought on the destruction of Judah by her enemies. The use of this title as an attribute of deity is found in personal names both in the Bible (Elizur, Num 1:5; "my God is a Rock"), as well as in Amorite personal names in the Mari texts (such as Ṣuri-Dagan).

  The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the human spirit within a person, declares: 2"I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. 3On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. 4On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness," declares the LORD. "I will keep a watchful eye over Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations. 5Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.'
  But this is what the LORD Almighty says: "They may build, but I will demolish. They will be called the Wicked Land, a people always under the wrath of the LORD. 5You will see it with your own eyes and say, 'Great is the LORD—even beyond the borders of Israel!'
  By saying, "All who do evil are good in the eyes of the LORD, and he is pleased with them" or "Where is the God of justice?"
