Thiele’s Bible-based scholarship, then, has been used to correct dates that were commonly accepted by the Assyrian academy. This needs to be made clear because there have been those who, mistakenly thinking they are supporting the Bible, accuse Thiele of somehow distorting the Biblical data to match secular history. For example, Floyd Nolen Jones writes, “Thiele’s chronology tortures and contorts the Hebrew record in order to make it fit the Assyrian framework.”<ref>Floyd Nolen Jones, “The Chronology of the Old Testament“, rev. edition (Green Forest AR: Master Books, 2005, 2009), p. 147b.</ref> Other writers have made similar charges against Thiele that cannot be substantiated by the facts, document above, of Thiele’s actual method. The chronology for the Biblical kingdom period, based on Thiele’s research (and to some extent on that of his predecessor, Valerius Coucke) has established the Bible as a reliable source for the four-century period of Israel’s divided kingdom, and stands as a testimony to the accuracy of the abundant chronological data that the Bible gives for that time.
