who was the king of judah when jerusalem fell?
antigonus ii mattathias
although there is no dispute that jerusalem fell the second time in the summer month of tammuz, albright dates the end of zedekiah's reign (and the fall of jerusalem) to 587 bce, whereas thiele offers 586 bce. thiele's reckoning is based on the presentation of zedekiah's reign on an accession basis, which was used for most but not all of the kings of judah. in that case, the year that zedekiah came to the throne would be his "first" partial year; his first full year would be 597/596 bce, and his eleventh year, the year jerusalem fell, would be 587/586 bce. since judah's regnal years were counted from tishrei in autumn, this would place the end of his reign and the capture of jerusalem in the summer of 586 bce.
