2 Kings 21:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 21:14

And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance
The whole land of Canaan was the Lord's inheritance; ten tribes in it were already removed, only Judah with Benjamin was left, and the Lord threatens to forsake that remnant:

and deliver them into the hands of their enemies, and they shall become
a prey and spoil to all their enemies;
which was fulfilled in their captivity in Babylon.
