Of the rest of the Kings of Assyria from Ascatades the eigh∣teenth King vnto Sardanapalus the sixe and thirtith, and the last King of the Assyrians, which is since the Israelites left Egypt, vntill the first Olympiad, at what time Iotham reigned in Iudea.

CHAP. II.

IN the last yeere of Ascatades, began Dar∣danus to gouerne the Troianes, himselfe being the first king and first builder of Dardania, then Ilion, and the third time called Troy, after the flood eight hundred and thirtie yeeres: for Berosus in the last yeeres of Ascatades the eighteenth king of the Assyrians, ended his historie, and went into Athens, and read the Grecians Astronomy, instructed them in the Chalde∣ans knowledge, concerning the first age before the flood: se∣condly, the genealogie of Adam, and the rest vnto the flood: thirdly, of the flood and of Noah, by the name of Ianus, of his long continuance, of his traueile, lawes, and monu∣ments in all Countries: fourthly, •…•…ee taught the antiquitie to the Athenians, of all Kingdomes & Nations, for the which the Athenians caused his statue to be made with a tongue gil∣ded in his head, and to bee put vp in the open schoole at Athens: thus was Berosus in Athens honored with a statue. I thinke it best therefore after that Berosus ended his historie of the kings of Assyria, briefely to passe them ouer, onely set∣ting their names, the time of their gouernment, and the con∣tinuance of the same, vntil their kingdome and Empire was taken away by the Chaldeans. I haue already from Nimrod the first king, vntil Ascatades the eighteenth king, set downe their names: & now from Ascatades vnto Sardanapalus the last king, I will likewise passe them ouer briefely.

18 Ascatades the eighteenth king of Assyria, reigned fourtie yeeres: in his time Dardanus builded Dardania, af∣terwarde called Troy, whose building was after the flood eight hundred and thirtie yeeres.

19 Amintes succeeded Ascatades, and reigned king of Assyria 45. yeeres: in this kings time Moses died in the land of Moab on mount Nebo, after he had brought the Israelites out of Egypt 40. yeeres.

20 After Amintes folowed Belochus Iunior, which reigned 25. yeeres in Assyria: he had a daughter named Ac∣tosa, otherwise called Semiramis, who gouerned with her fa∣ther 7. yeeres. The first Iubilee began in the fourth yeere of this king Bellochus after Moses: for from Moses death vnto the birth of Christ are 29. Iubilees.

21 Bellopares reigned 30. yeeres, in whose time the Is∣raelites serued Eglon king of Moab 18. yeeres, vntill Ehud the sonne of Gera slue Eglon, by whose death Israel had rest 18. yeeres.

22 Lamprides the 22. king of Assyria, reigned 32. yeres, in whose time Shamgar •…•…dged Israel, who slue 600. Phili∣stims with an Oxe goade, so God still raised either Priest, Prophet, Iudge, or a king to defend his people.

About this time was the Leuites wife abused at Gibeah to death: for the which cause the Leuite cutteth her in 12. pie∣ces, and sendeth her to the 12. tribes of Israel: for the which * 1.1 villanie all the tribe of Beniamin were well nigh destroyed.

After Lamprides had reigned 32. yeeres, hee had after him a king called Sosares, in whose time (as Cassiod. doth write) the flying horse Pegasus was inuented, and so called for his swiftnesse. Debora and Barac ruled Israel foure yeeres, at what * 1.2 time they fought with Iabin. Iael slue Sisera the chiefe cap∣taine of Iabin king of Chanaan, and his whole armie were ouerthrowen by Barac and Debora. The historie of Ruth was likewise about this time: some suppose that Obed the sonne of Boas was borne when Sosares had reigned twentie yeeres. Lampares succeeded him, and he continued thirtie yeeres. In the fifth yeere of Lampares sell the third Iubilee after Moses * 1.3 amongst the Iewes.

Many of the Assyrian kings might haue beene omitted for any memorie they left behinde, sauing that by the time of their gouernment, we know how euery kingdome and when euery nation began to florish: for truely they were more an∣cient then the rest, and were the first kings of the worlde, and were idle without any great warre, therfore is little written of them vntill Phul Belochus time: for Herodotus, Ctesias, and Dio∣dorus Siculus, wrote more liberally of the Assyrians, then ei∣ther * 1.4 authoritie or reason warranted them therein. The grea∣test bragge that Saneherib, called Sargon in some histories, could make of his predecessours the kings of Assyria, at what time he laide siege to Ierusalem, hee boasted to Ezechia king of Iuda, the victories and conquestes of the kings of Assyria in these wordes, Tu audisti O Ezechia, omnia quae fecerunt reges Assyriorum? &c. Hast thou not heard (O Ezechias) what my predecessours the kings of Assyria haue done? haue they not * 1.5 conquered Gozan, Haran, and Reseph? haue they not subdued the sonnes of Eden, which dwelt in Thalassar? what is be∣come of king Emath, and of king Arphad? where be the kings Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? are not these subdued and con∣quered * 1.6 by the kings of Assyria? all these kings dwelt in Syria. All this bragge of Saneherib, who was in the most florishing time of the Assyrians Empire, their kingdome, their victo∣ries, their glorie, and all these repetitions of Saneherib, ex∣tended not yet as farre as Mount Taurus: and therefore Dio∣nysius Halicar nassaeus, is in this to bee both beleeued and pre∣ferred before either Herodotus, or Ctesias, or Diodorus and others, who wrote more largely then truely of the Assyrian kings: for hee saith, that the olde Assyrian Empire possessed * 1.7 but a litle part of Assyria, Modicam quandam Assyriae partem obti∣nuit, as Dionysius affirmeth: for during the time and gouern∣ment of the first kings of Assyria, euen from Nynus the first king, vntill Sardanapalus their last king, was fabulosum tempus: the trueth of their historie and the glory of their Empire ap∣peared from the time of Phul Belochus, which was father to Phul Assur, and in the sacred Scripture named Tiglat Assur.

This Phul Assur was father to Salmanasser, and Salmanasser was father to Senaherib. At this time it was called newe Assy∣ria, whose Empire was againe after the death of Saneherib by Merodach brought into Babylon: for in Babylon the first Empire began, after translated from Babylon to Niniue, and now from Niniue to Babylon againe, where it ended in Balsaar, as it shall be shewed when the historie commeth to it.

In this kings time the Midianites preuailed much against the children of Israel for seuen yeres, and they were sore op∣pressed, vntill Gedeon was sent to be their deliuerer, and to be their iudge. Then Pannias, or otherwise Pannas, was the 25. * 1.8 king of Assyria, in whose time the kings of Argiues ended their kingdome, & their Empire was translated into Mycena, after they had gouerned as kings 540. yeeres. In this time reigned * 1.9 in Athens Pandion, and Mydas gouerned in Phrygia.

About which time Abimelech the tyrant vsurpeth the king∣dome of Israel, and putteth seuentie of his brethren to death: Habuit mercedem: for at Thebes as Abimelech was besieging a * 1.10 high strong Towre, a woman did cast a piece of a milstone vpon his head, and brake his braine panne, after he had bene a iudge in Israel three yeeres. In the 24. of Pannias happened the fourth Iubilee after Moses. In this kings time likewise ru∣led * 1.11 in Israel Thola, a iudge of the tribe of Isachar, and gouerned the people of Israel 23. yeres. After this reigned Sosarmus 19. yeeres in Assyria. It is written that Orpheus the Thracian, the * 1.12 most famous and most auncient musitian liued at this time. Iair the Gileadite gouerned Israel 22. yeeres: this iudge had thirtie sōnes that rode on 30. asse coltes, men of great autho∣ritie: for they had thirtie Cities in the land of Gilead, and they kept the land in peace 22. yeeres. Now Faunius Iunior gouer∣ned Italie, to whom Euander came from Arcadia, and had gi∣uen him certaine lands in Italie, which Euander called after∣ward Palatinum. Manethon writeth, that Hercules, Amphitrions sonne was borne about this time, of whom the Poets faine, that he was the sonne of Iupiter: of this man more shalbe spo∣ken amongst the Grecians, when I speake of their histories.

But againe to the Assyrians, who had after Sosarmus a king called Mytreus the 27. king, and raigned 27. yeeres: in the latter ende of this kings raigne Hercules killed Cacus the great * 1.13 giant, in mount Auentine, after Hercules ouerthrew Troy, and killed the king called Laomedon, and made Priamus his sonne king of the Troyans: who againe repaired and builded vp Troy to be one of the strongest townes of the worlde. This Hercules came to Italie fiftie and fiue yeeres before AEneas comming, and gaue to the Italians lawes. Reade of this more in Halicarn. lib. 1.

In Israel after Iudge Iair died, it was 18. yeres interregnum, without a Iudge, and they wrought wickednes in the sight of * 1.14 the Lord againe, and serued Baalim and Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and God was angrie with them, and deliuered them to the handes of their ene∣mies, who vexed and oppressed them 18. yeeres, vntill the time they put away the strange gods, and serued the true God with great repentance. Ishai the father of the Prophet * 1.15 Dauid was borne about this time, three hundreth yeere after the Israelites going out of Egypt.

Nowe with the Assyrians, Tautanes the 28. king beginneth to rule, about which time Hercules appointed the games of * 1.16 Olympia, where all the Grecians came to exercise feates of armes, running and wrastling, with all other kinde of exer∣cise, 430. yeeres before the Olympiads began. This time hap∣pened * 1.17 in Egypt in the Isle of Pharao a great deluge called Dilu∣uium Pharaonicum, which did ouerflowe the whole countrey, which was seldome seene in Egypt, for that they haue no raine but onely the ouerflowing of Nilus which once a yeere hap∣peneth vnto them.

By this time Iephtah was made Iudge in Israel, a valiant man: but for that hee was a bastard, sedition grewe in Israel * 1.18 against Iephtha by the Ephraimites, his brethren thrusted him out, and Iephtha fled to the land of Tob: but hee was made afterward captaine ouer Israel, and hee subdued the Ammo∣nites

from Aroer to Abel, 20. cities, and slew 42. thousand of the Ephraimites, and for the victorie here of he sacrificed his daughter vnto the Lord according to his vow, though it was rash & vnlawful. In this Tautanes time raigned 4. Iudges, Ieph∣tha 6. yeres, Ibzan gouerned 7. yeres: some thought this to be * 1.19 Boas the husband of Ruth, the grandfather of Dauid: this had 30. sonnes and 30. daughters. After him Elon of the tribe of Zabulon, iudged Israel 10. yeeres: and after Elon ruled Abdon: this Iudge had 40. sonnes, and thirtie sonnes sonnes that rode on 70. assecolts, and he gouerned Israel 10. yeres and died.

About this time Theseus rauished Helen the wife of Mene∣laus, * 1.20 which being by Adoneus king of the Molosseans taken, was rescued by his felow and alwayes his companion Hercules. In the kingdome of Assyria succeeded Tautanes, who raigned 40. yeres: of which we reade nothing worth the writing. At this * 1.21 time Samson the sonne of Manoah of the tribe of Dan, gouer∣ned Israel 20. yeeres: he plagued the Philistims who had kept Israel vnder hand for their sinnes & wickednes: for God was angrie with them: for notwithstanding all his goodnes, his mercy towardes them, and his miracles amongst them, yet they still rebelled, and moued the Lord to wrath: this Samson was the last Iudge of Israel. Then the state of the Israelites go∣uernment * 1.22 was altered, and they were vnder Ely the priest.

At this time raigned a king that gouerned the Thuscanes named Ocnus Beanor, this builded Mantua the coūtrey where Virgil was borne, which the Romans called after Hethruscanes. * 1.23 Now that the race of the Iudges of Israel is ended which con∣tinued from Moses death, vntil Samuel 357. yeres, God suffred kings to gouerne his people, and appointed his Prophets to direct his kings: this came to passe in Samuels time, who an∣oynted Saul king ouer Israel, and they both together raigned 40. yeeres. By this time Tyneus the 30. king of the Assyrians raigned in Niniue 30. yeres, and in the 13. of his raigne the 7. Iubilee of the Iewes began. The kingdome of Hispane before * 1.24 called Iberia, & before that time Celtiberia, is in this time de∣uided into prouinces, into seueral gouernmēts of cities and

countreis, hauing 24. kings by succession, which continued vntil 75. yeeres after the destruction of Troy, & continued so vntil the Carthaginians began to flourish, whom the Romanes afterward cōquered. At this time one Pypinus gouerned the Thuscanes, and raigned, as Manethon writes, 56. yeres. In the last yeres of this king Tyneus, the Prophet Dauid was borne, * 1.25 407. yeres after the children of Israels going out of Egypt, and in the 7. Iubile after Moses: then began to raigne in Assyria Der∣cillus, * 1.26 he raigned 40. yeres. In his dayes began the kingdome of Lacedemonia, 83. yeres after Troys destruction: the first king of Lacedemonia was called Euristenes, who raigned 42. yeeres: * 1.27 of him came lineally 2. noble and valiant captains, Cleomenes and Leonidas, who in their time were most famous, for they inuaded the Persians, and ouerthrew them at Thermophila.

About the same yere the Corinthians began likewise to esta∣blish * 1.28 a kingdome: for the Lacedemonians and the Corinthians began at one time to raigne: the first king of Corinth was Ale∣thes, and he raigned 35. yeres. In the 10. yere of king Dercillus the Arke of the Lord was taken by the Philistines, and caried vnto Ashdod, one of their fiue principal cities, & they kept the * 1.29 Arke 7. moneths. For when the Israelites were ouercome by the Philistines, and the arke taken away, Ely the priest hearing that the Israelites were ouerthrowen, the arke taken, and his two sonnes slaine, fel down frō his stoole & brake his necke: for so the Lord told Samuel before what should become vpō Ely & his house. Israel stil offended God, & now not conten∣ted with the gouernmēt which God appointed them, but cri∣ed * 1.30 out for a king, God cōmanded Samuel to anoint Saul their king. About this time great warres grew betwene the Pelopo∣nesians and the Athenians. Codrus at that time liued, & was the last king of Athens: for after Codrus there was no king there, but gouernours called Metontidae. Codrus sonne called Medon was the first Iudge in Athens after the kings. Codrus according to the Oracle giuen, that the Athenians should haue no victo∣ries * 1.31 vnlesse their king were slaine in the battell, he disguised himselfe like a common souldier, rushed into the midst

of the battaile purposely to be slaine, that his countrey might haue victorie, being the last of the 17. kings, hauing ruled Athens 21. yeeres, ended his life and his kingdome.

About this time Samuel was commanded to anoint Dauid king ouer Israel, and many learned men would haue Homer a∣bout * 1.32 this time to be borne: some controuersie is of Homers time: Eratosthenes thought it within 100. yeeres after the de∣struction of Troy, and so saith Aristarchus, and Cornelius Ne∣pos, both affirme that Homer flourished 100. yeeres before the first Olympiad. Budaeus saith, that Homer liued in the latter yeres * 1.33 of king Dauid, so they square about 80. yeres of Homers birth. During this time raigned ouer the Latines, AEneas Siluius their fourth king.

After this raigned in Assyria Eupales 38. yeeres, in whose time the Peloponesians againe mooued warres against the A∣thenians. Now about this time the promise is made to Dauid that the continuance of his kingdome should for euer en∣dure, but with crosses and afflictions: for Absalon killed his brother Amnon a litle after, and fled vnto the king of Gessur, * 1.34 and taried there three yeere. By this time Salomon was borne of Bethsaba the wife of Vrias: Nathan and Gad were in those dayes Prophets of the Lord.

Now raigned in Athens Medon the first Iudge, the sonne of Codrus the last king of Athens: in Lacedemonia Argis the second * 1.35 king raigned one yeere, Arcestratus succeeded the third king of Lacedemonia, and gouerned the Lacedemonians 35. yeeres: in Corinth likewise Ixon the second king raigned 37. yeeres: for both these kingdomes had one beginning, and therefore their kingdome is accordingly to be handled: for in the last yeres of the kings of Assyrians histories, the Grecians began: for this vnderstand, that the Caldeans, Assyrians, Egyptians, and all the East part of the world, which were first inhabited af∣ter * 1.36 the flood, were euen consumed with sworde and fire, before the Grecians or the Romanes were acquainted with the world, and therefore the lesse to be spoken of these olde aun∣cient people for want of authorities: and had not the holy

Ghost lightened prophane histories with true records of the Scripture, all antiquities had almost bene put to obliuion: * 1.37 for all that are in trueth learned in histories, take their light from Moses: he is the grand scholemaster of all writers.

About this time Nicius Fesulanus gouerned the Thuscanes * 1.38 47. yeres: he expelled the people called Phocenses out of Cor∣sica, and Nicius builded a towne, and named it Nicea after his owne name. By this time Salomon grewe great in Gods fa∣uour, * 1.39 began to make the temple in Ierusalem, excelled all the princes of the world in wisdome & gouernment. Hiram king of Tyrus at that time sendeth to Salomon, and Salomon to him, purposing to builde the house of God: which temple began to be builded the fourth yeere of Salomons raigne, and the 12. of Hiram king of Tyre Salomons friend, who procured worke∣men to worke in Libanon, and after the going of Israel out of Egypt 480. yeeres.

Some thinke that Carthage was builded by Charcedon at * 1.40 that time: some thinke of Dido: others say otherwise, both of the building of Carthage, and of the time of building, as in the building of Troy, and in the building of Rome the like contro∣uersie * 1.41 is, that sub iudice lis est. Laosthenes the 33. king of the Assyrians is the next king after Eupales, and is now in hand to * 1.42 be spoken of, in whose time Alba Siluius gouerned the Latines the sixt king: for the sirnames of the Latin kings were called Siluij, as the kings of Alexandria were called Ptolomei, as before * 1.43 I told you of the Caesars of Rome and Pharaos of Egypt.

About this time the kingdome of Israel for the idolatrie of Salomon was deuided, and the ten tribes caried from Rehobo∣am * 1.44 the sonne of Salomon king of Iuda, vnto Ieroboam king of Is∣rael, who inuented many wicked things in Israel, idolatrie, new religion, contempt of the true God, putting vp for their god the golden calfe: thus he and his posterities continued * 1.45 from the fourth yeere of Rehoboam, vntil the 19. yeere of Na∣buchodonosor, which was 390. yeeres, at what time the last de∣struction of Ierusalem, and the captiuitie of Iuda was Archippus the third Iudge atthis time ruled Athens, where he gouerned

19. yeeres: vnder whom flourished Sextus Homerus a citizen of Athens: this man gaue new lawes to the Athenians. The Thracians were strong by this time, and became great on land and seas, & Smendes king of Egypt to whom Ieroboam fled, and with whome he staied vntil Salomon died: this Smendes is na∣med * 1.46 in Scripture Sesac: this came vp against Ierusalem the fift * 1.47 yere of Rehoboam, destroyed the citie, spoiled the temple; and tooke all the treasures of the kings house away. Thus was * 1.48 Iuda punished for sinne by Sesac king of Egypt a heathen man.

At Corinth gouerned Pryminas the fourth king: he raigned thirtie and fiue yeeres at Corinth. In Assyria after Laosthenes raigned Pyrithides 30. yeeres, in the 10. yeere of the tenth Iu∣bilee, * 1.49 which Iubilee was in the yeere of the worlde, two thou∣sand nine hundreth ninetie and three. Abia the sonne of Re∣hoboam raigned three yeres king of Iuda: after whom succee∣ded Asa. In Tyrus raigned now a king called Ascartus, who af∣ter he had raigned 12. yeeres in Tyrus, his brother Astarimus succeeded him, and gouerned Tyrus 9. yeeres, and hee was slaine by his brother called Phelletes: he raigned 8. moneths, and was likewise slaine by Ichobalus a priest of the goddesse Astarthes, of whome mention is made in the thirde booke of * 1.50 the kings and the 11. chapter. This goddesse Salomon honou∣red much: and in Egypt ruled Pseusenses. There rose against Asa king of Iuda, Sera king of AEthiopia about this time, and * 1.51 thought to inuade Iewrie: but he was not by Asa, but by God put to flight, and his armie scattered and slaine.

Elias and Elizeus were borne this time, men singularly be∣loued * 1.52 of God in the middle age of the worlde: for so it is set downe (as Melancthon saith) by Elias himselfe, accompting * 1.53 the age of the world, 2000. without the Lawe, 2000. by the Law, and 2000. by grace, which are the dayes of Messias, but for sinne shortened, and by that rule to be looked for before 6000. yeere. Nadab at this time was the second king of Is∣rael, * 1.54 and began to raigne after Ieroboam, whom Baasha slew in the third yeere of Asa king of Iuda. Baasha the third king of Is∣rael builded Rama, that it might bee a cause that they of the

kingdome of Iuda might not come within the territorie of Israel, neither they of Israel might trouble Iuda, for the which Asa king of Iuda for feare of Baasha king of Israel, maketh * 1.55 couenant with Benhadad king of Aram, and therefore is re∣proued by the Prophet, for that he trusted in the king of A∣ram, and not in God who had giuen him victorie before ouer the AEthiopians and Lubins. At this time Achia and Sameas prophecied in Israel: and Septimus Siluius was king ouer the Latins, after whome succeeded Capis Siluius the eight king of the Latins, and raigned 28. yeeres: by this Capis was Capua * 1.56 builded. In Lacedemonia gouerned the sixt king named Age∣silaus, and ouer the Corinthians Bacis the fifth king, of whome * 1.57 the kings of Corinth were afterward named Bacidae: the names of these kings for the most part are seldome found amongst writers, for they did nothing worth the memorie.

Now in Assyria raigned Ophrateus 20. yeres, he was the 35. king in whose dayes Zambri or Zimbri the seruant of Ela con∣spired * 1.58 against the king, killed him, and destroyed al the house of Baasha, according to the word of the Lord to Iehu, & after∣ward Zambri went to the kings house and burned the pallace of the kings, and himselfe with fire: then the people of Israel * 1.59 were deuided, some folowed Tobni to make him king, others folowed Omri, and so Omri became the sixt king of Israel. He * 1.60 builded first Samaria, 200. yeres before Romulus builded Rome. At this time raigned Nepher king in Egypt foure yeeres: and after him succeeded Amenophis, he raigned 9. yeres king in E∣gypt, of whom I wil speake among the kings of Egypt.

Now died Asa king of Iuda after he had raigned 41. yeeres: then folowed in Israel after Omri, Achab the 7. king worse then * 1.61 all the other kings before him, a great idolater, and a tyrant: in the fourth yere of this king Achabs raigne, began Iosaphat to raigne in Iuda. In Achabs time Elias beganne to prophecie, whose history beginneth from the 17. of the first of the kings, vntill the 3. of the 2. of the kings, where he prophecied of the famine that was at hand to come, 800. yeres after the famine * 1.62 in Iaacobs time. In these daies Hiel the Bethelite builded Iericho.

Amongst the Latins raigned a king called Tiberinus Siluius of whome the riuer Tiber is nowe named after Tiberinus name, for Tiber was called before Albula. Then was in Co∣rinth * 1.63 Agelas, and Archelaus gouerned the Lacedemonians: Eu∣sebius in his histories affirmeth, that in this time flourished Licurgus a lawmaker, and a great wise man amongst the Lace∣demonians. * 1.64 After this raigned Ophraganeus Ascrasapes, and Sar∣danapalus, in whom ended the historie of the Assyrians.

And now hauing ended the whole time of 36. kings raig∣ning in Assyria, from Belus time vnto Sardanapalus, and after him from Bellochus vnto Merodach, the raigne of sixe kings, du∣ring * 1.65 which time it was called the newe kingdome of Assy∣ria, and from Merodach vnto Balsasar, fiue kings gouernment, which was translated from the Assyrians vnto the Chaldeans, as you shall reade more: being of two gouernements, and yet one Monarchie, sometime vnder the Chaldeans in Babylon, sometime in Niniue vnder the Assyrians, vntill both Chaldea and Assyria became subiect, first vnto the Medes and after to the Persians.
