Jeremiah #27

When the king of Babylon besieged Jerusalem and took the city, what on earth was he after? What did he want? If you have ever visited the old city of Jerusalem, you have to wonder why on earth that city has been the subject of so many wars. My first impression of the city, as I wandered around its old streets, was what in the world is here that is worth fighting over?The odd thing about it is that the people of Judea who were left behind after that war with Babylon were probably better off under Babylonian administration
