As I recall, the whole basis of discrediting Rashi, and the counting
of events from the year of creation, is that first Temple was
destroyed - according to secular sources - in 586 BC, while Seder
Olam, and Rashi, says it was 422 BC (as computed from the time of
creation of the world) - and my question, is - what are the sources
for saying that it was 586 BC?? Who had better records than
Chazal????
