After Josiah was laid in his grave, one trouble came on another, till, in twenty-two years, Jerusalem was destroyed.(609 Bc to 586BC)
With both Egypt and Babylon vying for dominance in the wake of Assyria’s collapse, Judah’s political days were numbered as Josiah’s weak successors vacillated between the two powers.

- Place into power by rich landowners who had issues with Egypt
- Pharaoh Neco, imprisoned him in Riblah ( North Side Of Israel. Today Syria & Lebanon) & took him away to Egypt, held him captive & he died there.
- Pharaoh Neco imposed on Judah a Fine/Penalty of 100 talents of silver & 1 talent of Gold (10 to one) 2 Kings 23:33/ 2 Chronicles 36:3
- 100 Silver Talents = 3.8 Tones & 1 Gold Talent= 75lb= 5.3 Stones
- As a unit of currency, a talent was worth about 6,000 denarii. A denarius was the usual payment for a day’s labour. At one denarius per day, a single talent was therefore worth 16 years of labour.
- Neco made himself superior and protector by force & trickery

Daniel 2:33-35 (NASB)
You continued looking until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
Daniel 2:33-35 (NASB)
In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed, and that kingdom will not be left for another people; it will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, but it will itself endure forever. Inasmuch as you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands and that it crushed the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold, the great God has made known to the king what will take place in the future; so the dream is true and its interpretation is trustworthy.
Daniel 2:44-45 (NASB)
