Zedekiah thought he could betray Babylon and get away with it — spoiler he could not
Judah's last king swore loyalty to Nebuchadnezzar then switched up and rebelled. Babylon besieged Jerusalem for two years, caught Zedekiah trying to flee, made him watch his sons get executed, then gouged out his eyes. The last thing he ever saw was his worst nightmare. Absolutely devastating.
Judah's kings keep choosing violence and God finally lets the consequences hit. Babylon sieges Jerusalem, strips the Temple clean, and deports everyone who matters. Three kings in one chapter and every single one catches an L.
2 KingsWhen Everything Burned DownJerusalem finally falls to Babylon, the Temple gets torched, and everyone gets dragged into exile. It's the darkest chapter in Israel's history — but there's one small W at the very end that keeps hope alive.
