Thank you. 390 years for the sin of Israel and 40 years for the sin of 
Judah? The total 430 years is close to the total period of the monarchy, 
from David c.1012 to the fall of Jerusalem c.586. But why this division? 
Or perhaps, as the NIV Study Bible suggests, the 390 years are from 
Solomon's unfaithfulness to the fall of Jerusalem, but then what are th 
40 years?
