Indeed, Jews had lost their kindoms consequently twicw in history nd history, thus brought us much problem. By the plane of legally two sidedness that will bring us the ever lasting time to create hostory, the retaliation will be in reverse in the opposition of the going on of the historical timing. The retaliation is the outcome to have a feed back to the causes in the historical timing line. The world is soliciting upon chances of fair. People are demanding fair chances or their oppotunity in their lives. There is nothing to be regarded as fair by the sense of humasnity because humanity only have a avarice upon their personality. Whay were the jews losing their knigdoms twice. This was humiliating historical fact.
To have an outcome in history, there would have been causes to ake something important or minor happen. the essential factors are something regarded as mathematically to be some kind of functions which are to participate into the lives of humanity. The jews lost their kingdoms because of the surrounding hostility which was to cause the outcome as lost. The lost in reverse, has become a cause of problem of the jews in the afterwrd histroical timing. Causea and outcomes are uniquely one that the histroical timing is a continual stuff which is to keep the plane of huanity going on and on.
Again, why the jews had to lose their kingdoms? It is not to find an answer but it isto analysis the reason. The surficial reason was the surrounding hostility which was to eradicate the Jewish kingdoms as hotile opponents. The innate reason was also to be blamed that the personality of the Jews was also a factor, leading to the losing of the kindoms. People are led by their innate dispositions blindly. This is very true that people have been lea by their innateness like personality dispositions without any awakening senses to find their faults with an expondable reasoning.
To have an anlysis deeper, the Jews represent the whole world. Although the cultural factors seem to be an circumscribed line to deter one from falling prey intot he situation of The Jews but in fact, the world is one. Our brothers of the Jews are problematic and so are we. From The jews, we may have the chance to see what our lives are and what our future will be.
