| Summary: | In this rejoinder to a recent article by Nadav Na’aman, I suggest that: A) The expansion of Jerusalem to the southwestern hill and the settlement prosperity in the Judahite countryside did not start before the middle of the 8th century and reached their peak in the last third of that century; B) The population growth in Jerusalem and Judah was so dramatic that it can be explained only on the background of the incorporation of the kingdom into the Assyrian world economy and the wave of refugees that came from the Northern Kingdom; C) There is no evidence for a demographic decrease in Jerusalem in the late 7th century B.C.\n4207 Dans cette réponse à un récent article de Nadav Na’aman, je propose que: 1 – L’expansion de Jérusalem sur la colline sud-ouest et la prospérité des installations de la campagne judéenne ne commencent pas avant le milieu du VIIIe s. et atteignent leur maximum au dernier tiers de ce siècle; 2 – L’accroissement de la population à Jérusalem et en Juda a été si forte que cela ne peut s’expliquer que sur l’arrière-fond aussi bien de l’intégration du royaume dans le monde économique assyrien, que de la vague des réfugiés du Royaume du Nord; 3 – Il n’y a pas de preuve d’un déclin démographique à Jérusalem à la fin du VIIe s.\n4207 \n4207 |
