Why did the Jews leave Jerusalem?
in about 1000 BC, the Hebrew king David captured Jerusalem. He fortified it and made it the main city of his kingdom. He chose the site for the temple which king Solomon enlarged the city.
after Solomon died, the Hebrew nation was split into two kingdoms, Israel and Judah. Jerusalem was capital of Judah.
