population was removed, some as captives, some willingly."

Karl, if you check the literature on the subjevct you'll realize that this
statement is not factual. You may wish to start with II Kings 25:22 ff.;
In modern research you can look up Oded Liphschitz and others..

Dave Washborn worte, inter alia:

"In addition, I would point out that the Bar Kokhba letters, like the DSS,
were produced by a small corner of the populace that had a specific
purpose in mind"

If you looked up the Hebrew letters you'd find some suprises. In
fact, Y. Yadin, the discoverer, was amused to note in their
language a colloquial usage like that of modern Heb. (Instead of
pronouning ")et" only the "t" remains and is prefixed to the next word.)

Eliezer Ben-Yehudah in the intorduction to his great dictionary made some
excellent points on this general subject.
