Question

Explain what caused the Hebrews to divide Canaan into two separate states. What eventually became of the two Hebrew states? (in full sentence)

Answer 1

The Hebrews divided the land of Canaan into two separate states soon after the death of their king in 931 BCE. There was a dispute between two different groups over who the proper successor should be. As a result, two tribes moved their people north to form the state of Israel. The remaining tribes setteled in the south and formed the state of Judah. Israel was attacked and conquered by the Assyrians in 722 BCE. In 587 BCE, the Babylonians conquered the area that used to be Israel and then went on to conquer Judah. This brought an end to any Hebrew state.

Answer 2

King Solomon created the wealthiest state the Hebrews would ever see, but this came at a high cost. People were forced to work in the north. Land was given away also. After Solomon died, people refused to submit to his son, and the tribes revolted. From this point on there would be two kingdoms of Hebrews. Israel in the north and Judah in the south. Israel fell against the Assyrians in 722 BC, they forced hebrews to move from Israel to other parts of the Assyrian kingdom. And brought Assyrians to relocate in Israel. Judah was conquered by the Chaldeans. Judah was also a tribute state of Egypt and later a tribute state to Babylon. Jehoiachin king of Judah handed Jerusalem over to Nebuchadnezzar. He deported 10,000 Jews to his capitol in Babylon. This deportation was the beginning of the Exile.
