God Told Zedekiah to Surrender to Nebuchadnezzar
Jeremiah had been warning about the eventual fall of Jerusalem, precipitated by Nebuchadnezzar, but it did finally arrive. The day came and it came with a vengeance. Can you imagine living inside a city where you know there is an army outside, building ramps and things in order to be able to get into your city? Let’s remember what God had said to King Zedekiah.

Moreover, Jerusalem would not be trashed and burnt to the ground.
