Brief introduction of Israeli history

Jewish Kingdom [especially Guo Wang]

Kingdom of Judah

An ancient Hebrew country in southern Palestine. It was founded at the beginning of 1 millennium BC and was destroyed by the new king Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon in 586 BC. The capital is in Jerusalem.

Hebrews belong to Sem language family and entered Palestine in the second half of the second Millennium BC. At the end of 13 BC, they changed from nomadism to settlement and gradually conquered the Canaanites living here. From 1 1 century BC, the struggle against the Philistines promoted the emergence of the Hebrew state. After ten beloved Israeli kings in the north died in the battle with the Philistines, the Jewish king David (reigned in 1000-960 BC) elected by two southern departments continued this cause. David unified Palestine, completely defeated the Philistines, and then conquered the rest of the Canaanite settlements, with Jerusalem as its capital, and established a unified Israeli Jewish kingdom. Due to the huge difference between the north and the south of ancient Palestine, the rising rulers of the south levied more taxes on the north, which led to the intensification of the contradiction between the north and the south. In 922 BC, after the death of King Solomon, the son of David, the kingdom was divided and the northern part was the kingdom of Israel. In the south is the kingdom of Judea, with Rehoboam as the king and Jerusalem as the capital. During the period from Rehoboam to Amaziah (about 934 BC-about 783 BC), the country declined and once surrendered to Israel. During the reign of Hu Xi (about 7965438 BC+0-739 BC), the country was powerful and once became the leader of the western anti-Assyrian alliance. In 722 BC, after Israel was destroyed by Assyria, the Jewish kingdom was preserved after paying a large ransom and became the only remaining Hebrew country. Hezekiah, who succeeded to the throne in 7 15 BC, carried out religious and political reforms and abolished idolatry of foreign religions, which greatly influenced the formation of monotheistic Judaism. He also joined the anti-Assyrian alliance. In 70 1 BC, when sinatra cribb, king of Assyria, attacked Palestine, Hezekiah was besieged in Jerusalem and had to yield to Assyria. Josiah, the great grandson of Hezekiah (reigned from 640 BC to 609 BC), took advantage of the decline of Assyria to expand the scope of his rule, promulgated laws at home, carried out a thorough religious reform, practiced monotheism of worshipping Jehovah, and took the Jehovah's Temple in Jerusalem as the only religious center in the country, which had a far-reaching influence in the history of Hebrew origin. After Josiah, the Jewish kings tried to use the contradiction between the new kingdom of Babylon and Egypt to protect themselves, and the country went into decline. In 598 BC, Nebuchadnezzar II captured Jerusalem, kidnapped King jehoiachin and many noble craftsmen, and made Josiah's second son Zedekiah (reigned from 597 BC to 587 BC) a puppet. In 586 BC, Nebuchadnezzar II went down to Jerusalem again, destroyed the Jewish kingdom and moved a large number of Jewish subjects to Babylon, known as "Babylonian prisoners" in history. Since then,

During the reign of David and Solomon, they controlled the trade routes passing through Palestine, managed trade, had commercial ties with Egypt, the two river basins and other places, and the national economy developed greatly. In domestic class relations, Jews are free men, including slave owners and poor non-slave owners. Followed by foreign family members and handmaiden who are close to slaves. After the 8th century BC, the polarization between the rich and the poor was serious, which led to the slave riots in the 7th century BC. With the development of economy, the state institutions are becoming more and more perfect, and David's officials also have a special division of labor. Solomon designated the 12 district in China to collect taxes, and put people in charge. Aristocratic politics was practiced in the center of the kingdom, and besides the king, there were meetings of elders and people, which existed until the demise of the Jewish kingdom.

Kingdom of Israel [Guo Wang, Israel]

KingdomofIsrael

An ancient Hebrew country in northern Palestine. It was founded in 10 century BC and died in 722 BC for Assyrian king Sargon II. The capital is in Samaria.

Hebrews belong to Sem language family and entered Palestine in the second half of the second Millennium BC. At the end of 13 BC, they changed from nomadism to settlement and gradually conquered the Canaanites living here. The struggle with the Philistines in 1 1 century BC promoted the emergence of the Hebrew state. At the end of BC 1 1, Saul and David joined forces with the Hebrew tribes to establish a standing army to resist the invasion of the Philistines, and were elected as the king of Israel by North China, and formed a military aristocratic group around them. About 1000 BC, Saul was defeated and killed in the struggle with the Philistines. Since then, King David, the Jewish king, has completely defeated the Philistines, unified North and South Palestine and established the Jewish Kingdom of Israel. In the later period of King Solomon's rule, the contradiction between the north and the south intensified. With the support of the Egyptians, Jeroboam?I in the north rose up against Solomon, became king on its own and established the Israeli kingdom. In the early decades of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were frequent wars with the Jewish kingdom and Egypt invaded. During the rule of Omri dynasty, the situation was relatively stable. Omri, with Samaria as its capital, married Judea and Tyre against Syria's Arameans. During the reign of Ahab, the son of Omri, Israel joined forces with Syria and Palestine to control the westward advance of Assyrian empire. During the reign of Jehu Dynasty (842-748 BC), Israel was increasingly threatened by Assyrian Empire. In 722 BC, Sargon II captured Samaria, moved a large number of residents to foreign countries, and the kingdom of Israel perished.

The Kingdom of Israel is a slave country with aristocratic politics. In addition to the king, there are meetings of elders and people. Israelis are free men with complete power, including slave owners such as nobles and civilians and poor non-slave owners. The aliens conquered by Israel are powerless dependents, and their status is close to that of slaves. There are also handmaiden. After the 8th century BC, with the development of usury, the polarization between the rich and the poor became more and more serious. In this context, some poor priests at the lower level are active among the people, condemning the exploitation and slavery of the poor by the rich under the guise of the revelation of the Lord God, and predicting that the rich will be punished. This activity is called "Prophet Movement".

Israel is located in the trade hub of the Near East, and its economy and culture are extremely developed. In the 8th century BC, ironware was widely used and had extensive communication with all parts of the Near East. The ruins of the capital Samaria have been dug up. The city is well-planned, with stone walls, palaces, temples, arenas and theaters built in secret. The unearthed cultural relics reflect the influence of Egypt and Mesopotamia.
