Transcription: The Babylonian exile, surprisingly, made two positive contributions to Israel. First, the exile demonstrated that God's people could remain faithful and even prosper while under the domination of a foreign power. Second, it served as a time of spiritual and moral purification. Refined in the fires of judgment and captivity, the Jews would never again practice the deadly sin of idolatry.
