Transcription: In 722 BC, the 10 tribes of Israel were conquered by the Assyrians and carried off into captivity. The Bible makes clear that Israel was destroyed not because of military weakness, but because of its spiritual and moral collapse. The inhabitants of the northern kingdom discovered to their own regret that God took seriously his promise in Deuteronomy 31, either to bless or to destroy his people, depending upon their faithfulness to Him.
