(page 18)
The Bible though,depict the kings after Hezkiya,like Menashe an Amon,in the most negetive way.
After that king Josiah, in 627b.c stooped being a vessel of Assur together with the rest of the area , And expended over what was Israel before.Josia was a rightuos king and unlike the two kings befor Him he didnt tolerat any idol worship in Judea.
In 609 b.c king Josiah attacked the Egyptian army passing trough the coastal area on its way to fight the Babylonians led by king Necho II and dies.

In 600 b.c the king stop paying his tributes to Babel and in 598 the Babylonians sends their allies army(Aram,Muab,Amon)to destroy Judea and to plunder the temple.In 597 king Yehoyachin surrender Jerusalem and was exiled with 10,000 of Judea’s high society .

King Tsedakiya that was appointed by the Babylonians to rule occupied Judea,
In 594 b.c,the king met in Jerusalem other vessel kings about another rebellion,But the Babyonians soon repel the rebellion and seiged Jerusalem .An Egyptians relive force that came too late and too small to help Judea didn’t help at all.

In 586 Jerusalem fall, The king and his family,And other nobles were executed,And the city and the temple were burned down.The population were exiled to Babel.
The remains of the destruction are stile abundant today In archaeological excavations. Only the poor people were left to work in the vineyards, According to the Bible. The Jews commemorated the destruction of the temple in that day(the 9 of av)from that day and on by not drinking and eating for a day.

After the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple, the area was governed for the Babylonians by Gedalia, a leader of the Jewish farmers that weren’t exiled to Babel, That was a pro-Babel leader before the destruction.He encourage Jews that fled from Judea to return to dwell in the Benjamin area.
Gedalia was assassinate by the king of the Amonim with the help of Ishmael ben netaniya, Which was a relative of the house of David and probably wish to replace Gedalia. Instead,The assassination of a leader that was appointed by Babilon,Put great fear in the hearts of the Jews and all of them ,According to the bible ,Fled to Egypt.This is why the Jews morn that day every year since then and don’t eat and drink.
