Episode Synopsis

The Babylonian Army breeches the walls of Jerusalem, and the city falls to the enemy. The King's family and the nobility tries to escape, but they are captured by the Babylonians. As God had told Jeremiah, the King's family is brutally murdered, and Zedekiah is brought in chains into captivity. The conquerers leave the poor and previously enslaved Judeans in Judea, and appoint Gedalyahu as their giverner. Jeremiah chooses to remain with the remnant of his people. There is still hope that Judea can survive under the humble leadership of Gedalyahu.
