List of all the Kings of Judah
The Southern Kingdom consisted of 2 tribes (Judah and
Benjamin). The kingdom extended in the north as far as
Bethel, while in the south it ended in the dry area known as
the Negev. Its eastern and western boundaries were the
Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. Jerusalem was its
capital and it lasted from about 922-586 B.C. There were 8
good kings ruling the southern kingdom of Judah, the rest
were all evil. After Josiah reigned there was no hope for
Judah, the last 3 kings were evil. The Babylonians came and
captured Jerusalem in 597 BC. A second attack led to
Jerusalems second defeat in 586 BC. Captives from both
campaigns were taken to Babylonia to mark the captivity of
the Southern Kingdom.
