Listen up, maggots! This is 2 Chronicles 36! God's people were being punished for disobeying Him. King Zedekiah was a bad ruler and he and the people were captured by the Babylonians. God allowed this to happen because of their stubbornness and refusal to obey His commands. The Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem and the temple and took the people away into the Babylonian captivity. This lasted 70 years. After the captivity, God allowed the people to return to Jerusalem and they rebuilt the temple and the city. This is 2 Chronicles 36! You got that!?
