Pul - Tiglath-Pileser III : 2K. 15:19-20; 2K. 15:29; 1Chr. 5:26

"The text in 1 Chronicles 5:26, “And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tiglath-pilneser king of Assyria, and he carried them away” (KJV) has often been cited as proof that the Bible supports the position that Pul and Tiglath-Pileser III were two individuals. It has been pointed out, however, that inasmuch as the Hebrew verb “carried” is here in the singular, as it is correctly translated with the singular pronoun “he,” this verse definitely conveys the idea that Pul and Tiglath-Pileser were one and the same and that the correct translation of the waw introducing the epexegetical phrase concerning Tiglath-Pileser should be “even.” Thus the verse would read “And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul, king of Assyrian, even the spirit of Tiglath-Pileser, king of Assyria, and he carried them away.” Most recent English translations give this verse correctly, recognizing that Pul and Tiglath-Pileser where the same individual. Among them are the NEB, NIV, NASB, MLB, and GNB." Ref-0839, pp. 139-140. "Indisputable proof of their identity is provided by notations from a Babylonian king list and the Babylonian Chronicle where, in a list of the Babylonian kings Tiglath-Pileser appears by his usual Assyrian name on the one list and by his name Pulu on the other. . ." Ref-0839, p. 141. "Most modern scholars insist that the Assyrian annals record Tiglath-pileser (III) as claiming to have received tribute from Menahem, King of Israel. This has led nearly all scholars to identify the Biblical “Pul” as being Tiglath-pileser (III) rather than his immediate predecessor as stated in the Authorized Bible [1Chr. 5:26, KJB] . . . In order to “honor” the Assyrian data, the New King James translation alters this Scripture to read “So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, that is, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. . . .” rather than the more correct word “and” as the King James faithfully records. . . . The continual assertion that the Annals of the Kings of Assyria record Tiglath-pileser (III) as claiming to have received tribute from Menahem is seen as false as the name “Menahem” appears in brackets meaning that the annals is unreadable and the word has been supplied by the translator. Thus, this identification rests solely upon conjecture. The rationale behind this supposition is to be found in the second Assyrian annals text which refers to the tribute of a “Menihimmu of Samerina” (Menahem of Samaria?). This fragmentary text has been assigned to Tiglath-pileser (III). Based on this data, the name “Menahem” was added and inserted in the bracket in the preceding text. . . . On the authority of the Hebrew Text, this author positively asserts that the second “slab” inscription has been wrongly assigned to Tiglath-pileser (III) whereas in truth it should be credited to an earlier Assyrian monarch whom the Biblical text calls “Pul” (Ashur-dan III). The testimony of the Hebrew Text unmistakably places Pul in the days of Menahem's reign (722-761 B.C.) and states that he extracted tribute from that King of Israel . . . 2K. 15:19-20." Ref-0186, pp. 177-179. ". . . the word “Pul” is a title, not a proper or forename. It means “Lord” and could therefore refer to any Assyrian ruler. . . . Moreover, even a casual glance at 1 Chronicles 5:26 reveals the obvious truth that Pul and Tiglath-pileser (III) are not he same man but two different Assyrian Monarchs; and with this Josephus completely occurs. If they were one and the same ruler, why does the title “king of Assyria” follow after both . . . ? Were they the same man, the verse would only have the title “king of Assyria” once . . . The redundancy, although not mentioned heretofore in the literature to our knowledge, is an unmistakable indication that we are dealing with two distinct monarchs - not one. . . . Therefore, when the New King James Version and nearly all others make Pul and Tiglath-pileser III one and the same person, such is not a translation, rather it is an interpretation based on a faulty archaeological argument." Ref-0186, p. 180. "Modern scholars confound Pul and Tiglathpilasser and think they are the same person. This is the result of Edwin Thiele’s misunderstanding of biblical and Assyrian chronology." Ref-1507, p. 137.
