The Missing 168 Years in Jewish History (part 1)
According to general history books the second Beit HaMikdash was built around 351 BCE whereas Jewish chronology (Seder Olam, others) dates it around 516 BCE. From where did this discrepancy come? How do we reconcile the discrepancy? Do we conclude that our calendar is flawed? Do we conclude that the gentile historians are wrong?
