What Does 2 Kings 25:10 Mean?
With the buildings burning, the soldiers turn to the defenses. The walls that had encircled and protected the city are pulled down on every side, leaving Jerusalem open and defenseless. The judgment is now complete and visible to all.
Broken walls declare that the city's safety never lay in stone but in the Lord who had been forsaken. What human hands raise for security cannot stand when the foundation of faith is gone. Yet Scripture promises a city whose builder and maker is God, with walls that shall never be thrown down.
