This investigation studies two of the causes of the 1994 genocide of Rwanda. The two causes are examined in order to see to what extent each contributed to the genocide. The social and ethnic conflicts between two Rwandan groups called the Hutus and the Tutsis caused violent disputes and riots. The assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana is often thought of as the event that sparked the mass murders. Did the assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana influence the Rwandan genocide of 1994 more than the ongoing social and ethnic conflicts?

Yahweh is no longer able to protect them because they have broken their covenant with the living God. According to one dictionary Suzerain and Vassal relationship is described as “A form of international relationship where one nation (a vassal) pays tribute to and pledges allegiance to another nation (the suzerain).” This kind of Suzerain-vassal treat is very common in the ANE. “The framework of the Sinai covenant has significant affinities with suzerain-vassal treaties from the ancient Near East, specifically, the Hittite treaties of the fourteenth and thirteenth centuries BCE and the Assyrian treaties of the seventh and sixth centuries BCE. Due to breaking the Suzerain-Vassal relationship by Hezekiah, Sennacherib sends a campaign against Judah. Lawson and Younger mentions that “The cuneiform text summarizes the campaign of Sennacherib in 701 BCE, undertaken to quell the revolt of vassal states in the West which had broken out upon the death of Sargon four years earlier.” Breaking the treaty is a serious offense to the suzerain and consider as a “revolt” and brought consequences upon the vassal. Not only that, the vassals faced curses against them for breaking the treaty or covenant. And Hezekiah, the King of Judah relies on Egypt for help and while under suzerain-vassal relationship. (2 Kgs 18:20) Kitchen mentions “Sennacherib held a dunbar or rally of loyal vassals, who dutifully brought or sent their tribute,

It is apparent that the Southern Kingdom would have to face God’s judgment. The northern kingdom of Israel was destroyed by Assyria because of the sins and idolatries. Assyria tries to destroy Judah as well, but because of God’s intervention, the Assyrian army is slaughtered by an angel before they can enter Jerusalem. King, Hezekiah the righteous king who is supposed to have been one of Judah's very best rule survives. When he became ill and was told by an angel he was going to die the cried and prayed to God for help, and because he was the recipient of divine favor God gave him another fifteen years onto his life and reign after nearly dying. Yet, again, bad follows good, and the wicked king Manasseh starts doing all sorts of idolatrous

To start off, Assurbanipal was born to Esarhaddon and Sennnacherib. He grew up in a palace built by his grandfather. The palace in which he grew up was built when his grandfather was crowned prince. Assurbanipal grandfather was assassinated so his father took the spot as king in 681 BC. After the death of the queen Esarhaddon he decided that once he dies he would have Assurbanipal rule Assyria and Shamash-shum-ukin would rule Babylon. While Esarhaddon was travelling to reinvade Egypt he died out of no were. Assurbanipal did not get the throne till about a year after his father’s death.

Sennacherib mentions nothing of any soldier disappearing or dying; yet 2 Kings 19 states “the angel of the Lord went forth, and slew a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians (p. 117).” It’s hard to believe an angel actually came down and slaughtered that many soldiers without it being mentioned on Sennacherib’s side. If Sennacherib saw an angel slaughter some of his army, he’d be singing a different tune about gods. However, something happened for him to decide to go back to Nineveh. It could have been the tribute, but they still disagree on what was in the tribute. The Hebrew version mentions nothing of Hezekiah losing his daughters or his harem, and to go to battle and to stop only after getting a tribute sounds lack luster. It’s hard to believe, and if Sennacherib would have been honest and said a rebel happened somewhere else that needed his attention, it would beneficial to fill in the

During the Maccabees rule as high priests and kings, worldliness set in and Israel was in spiritual decline. As Rome became the most powerful empire at the time, the last Maccabean ruler was replaced in 63 BC. as Antipater became the procurator of Judea and his two sons became governors, the younger being a 25-year-old by the name of Herod the Great who was given the province of Galilee.
