Abstract Who killed Sennacherib? To answer this question we cannot rely on the brief biblical account given in 2 Kings 19: 36, which lays the blame on the frustrated Arda-Mullissi and his brother, for it was written some time after Esarhaddon took the throne, when Judah (under Manasseh) was a faithful vassal of Assyria. Esarhaddon, the main beneWciary of the murder, possibly pushed by his forceful mother Naqia, was soon in a position to propagate whatever version of events he wanted. Good detective method should look with suspicion on him, and take care to see what evidence is genuine and trustworthy. The prime suspect is the one who beneWts most from the crime.
