Answer Details
In Jeremiah, God tells the prophet that He would give Jerusalem into the hands of the Chaldeans because the Israelites had provoked Him to anger. The Israelites had turned away from God, worshiping idols, and not heeding the warnings of the prophets. They refused to repent of their ways, and their disobedience and rebellion against God led to the fall of Jerusalem. Therefore, God allowed the Chaldeans to conquer Jerusalem and take the Israelites into captivity.
