I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling overwhelmed, but I'm here to help! Let's go through the questions one by one and I'll explain how to arrive at the answers.
1. To determine the beginning of the Jewish Diaspora, we need to identify the date on the timeline provided. The Jewish Diaspora refers to the scattering of the Jewish people outside of their homeland. Looking at the answer choices, we see that option D, "c. 587 BCE," is the most relevant date, as it marks the destruction of the First Temple in Jerusalem by the Babylonians and the subsequent exile of the Jewish people.
2. For the second question regarding the map of Phoenician and Greek colonies, we need to infer information based on the map provided. From the answer choices, option B, "Phoenicians traded with peoples in Africa and Europe," is the most reasonable inference. The map suggests that Phoenicia's colonies were spread across different regions, indicating extensive trade connections.
3. In the next question about texts containing commentaries on the teachings of Moses, we need to consider which option specifically focuses on Moses' teachings. The Torah, option B, is the correct answer, as it refers to the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, which include the teachings and laws given by Moses.
4. Regarding the Sumerian art form shown in the photograph, we need to identify the correct term. The photograph shows cylinder seals, option A. Cylinder seals were small, cylindrical objects engraved with intricate designs and were used by ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia, including the Sumerians, for various purposes such as marking ownership or sealing documents.
