Continuing the series on Israel, starting with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and his twelve sons, the history continues through the time of the judges and the kings. King David reunited the divided kingdom but after Solomon, Israel was once again divided into the northern and southern kingdoms. After not heeding the warning of the prophets, both kingdoms were eventually taken into captivity - the northern kingdom (10 tribes) taken by Assyria and the southern kingdom later taken by Babylon. Later, under King Cyrus (Persia), the Jews were allowed to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem, thus helping them to keep their identity, but the tribes of the northern kingdom were scattered.
