What was the distance from Jerusalem to Babylon?

Distance between Jerusalem and Babylon

1. INTRODUCCIÓN

A reader asked what the distance was between Jerusalem and the ancient city of Babylon.

Let’s take a look.

 

2. DISTANCE FROM JERUSALEM TO BABYLON

According to Wikipedia, the ancient city of Babylon is located in the current city of Hillah, Iraq (coordinates: 32°32′33″N 44°25′16″E).

With this in mind, using Google Earth, we can measure the distance between both locations.

The result is a distance of about 550 miles (or ~900 km), as you can see in the image attached.

I hope you found this helpful.
