LOOKING PROM THE SITE OE SENNACHERIB"' S PALACE ACROSS THE TIGRIS TO MOSUL 



"Sennacherib was perhaps the most widely famous of all Assyrian monarchy. For us. 

 of course, Sennacherib is the Assyrian who 'came down like a wolf on the fold.' and we 

 think of him chiefly as the assailant of Judah, whose pride was so mysteriously brought low 

 by the great disaster recorded in II Kings xix : 35 : 'The angel of the Lord went out, and 

 smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred four score and five thousand; and when they 

 arose early in the morning, behold they were all dead corpses'" (see page 149).
