Why did the Jewish people suffer a lot in ancient times?
This is because the old city of Jerusalem is the holy city of religion, the birthplace of Judaism, Islam and Christianity, and all three religions regard Jerusalem as their holy land. Religion and tradition, history and theology, as well as holy places and places of worship, make Jerusalem a holy city revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims.

Holy city means sacred city.

The suffering of Jews stems from human sin, God's punishment and God's mercy.

The sin of Jews: disobedience to God and disowning Jesus;

God's punishment: God told Jews through Jewish prophets that he would punish them;

God's mercy: In suffering, Jews repent and return to their faith in God, thus avoiding ultimate destruction.

For example, it was precisely because the Jews suffered extremely in World War II that they won the sympathy of the whole world after the end of World War II and obtained the approval of the United Nations (the Soviet Union and the United States voted in favor at the same time, which was extremely rare at that time), which made the Jews successfully restore their country after losing their homeland in 2000, which was unique in human history.
