Skeptics claim that this prophecy failed because "People have never stopped living in Hazor and continue to do so:"
> Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation forever, there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it. (Jeremiah 49:33)

There are two mistakes in this assertion. First, Hazor, the well-known city in north Galilee, was destroyed by Tiglath-pileser III in 732 B.C., and there were only small resettlements during the Assyrian, Persian, and Greek periods. Secondly, and more importantly, this prophecy relates to the people of the east (v. 28) and is mentioned in connection with Kedar, an Arabian tribe. Therefore, the "Hazor" in this oracle is a completely different settlement located out in the eastern desert, the exact location of which remains unknown.

One Skeptic claims, "People have never stopped living in Hazor and continue to do so."

There are two mistakes in this assertion. First of all, Hazor, the city in north Galilee, was destroyed by Tiglath-pileser III in 732 B.C., and there were only small resettlements during the Assyrian, Persian, and Greek periods. Secondly, this prophecy relates to the people of the east (v. 28), and is mentioned in connection with Kedar, which most believe was an Arabian tribe. So this is a different Hazor that was out in the desert somewhere, and the exact location remains unknown.
