The Babylonian "Marduk Prophecy", a text describing the travels of the Marduk idol from Babylon, "prophesies" of the statue’s seizure during the sack of the city by Mursilis I in 1531 BC, Assyria, when Tukulti-Ninurta I overthrew Kashtiliash IV in 1225 BC and took the idol to Assur, and Elam, when Kudur-Nahhunte ransacked the city and pilfered the statue around 1160 BC.
A copy[1] was found in the House of the Exorcist at Assur, whose contents date from 713–612 BC and is closely related thematically to another vaticinium ex eventu text called the Shulgi prophecy, which probably followed it in a sequence of tablets.
The Book of Daniel utilizes vaticinium ex eventu, by its seeming foreknowledge of events from Alexander the Great's conquest up to the persecution of Antiochus IV Epiphanes in the summer of 164 BCE.
[2] The stories of the first half are legendary in origin, and the visions of the second the product of anonymous authors in the Maccabean period (2nd century BCE).
Statements attributed to Jesus in the Gospels that foretell the destruction of Jerusalem (e.g., Mark 13:14,[4] Luke 21:20[5]) and its temple are considered to be examples of vaticinia ex eventu by the great majority of Biblical scholars[6] (with regard to the siege of Jerusalem in AD 70, in which the Second Temple was destroyed).
