What is Jewish Chronology and Historical Analysis about?

This document provides a summary of the Jewish system for counting years from Creation (AM) and compares it to the Common Era (CE) system. It notes discrepancies between the biblical chronology, rabbinic tradition which places the Second Temple as standing for 420 years, and the chronology established by secular historians. Specifically, it finds that if the Second Temple was destroyed in 70 CE as tradition holds, its consecration would have been around 517 BCE, not 351 BCE as the Jewish tradition maintains
