Read Jeremiah 52 and all of Lamentations to capture the feel of the time when Jerusalem fell. Consider modern history and think of an event that was close to the fall of Jerusalem in both scope and significance. Share. 2. Imagine the suffering of the people at the time. Would you be able to: first, accept that it was your fault, and second, trust and praise God? 3. Are there any places in your life that are susceptible to ending up in a calamitous fall? If so, does anyone else know about them who can help you now before such a fall might occur? 4.
