Israel failed to be a light to the Gentiles and broke their Covenant with God, therefore they were sent into Captivity- In Jeremiah 24 we see the difference between the 'good figs' and the 'bad figs' and they were so bad they could not be retrieved.
The good figs were the remnant who submitted to God's judgement and believed the prophet Jeremiah. The wooden yoke captivity meant they were still in the land but under occupation. The iron yoke of captivity and judgment from Deuteronomy 28v48 God said that if Israel broke Covenent with Him, He would put an iron yoke neck until He destroyed them.
Under Roman occupation Israel rejected the Messiah and were even instrumental in His crucifixion. At the Trial of the Lord Jesus Christ, Israel cried out 'We have no king but Caesar' (John 19v15 cf 1 Samuel 8v7).
The Roman empire was the 4th Beast of Daniel 2v40-43 and was therefore the Beast of Revelation 13v1 (the political Beast out of the sea) By crying out 'We have no king but Caesar' Israel bowed down to the Beast and 40 years later God put on them the iron yoke and destroyed their Temple, Jerusalem and drove them out of the land as He said He would in the Mosaic covenant.
As Jesus said in Matthew 21v43 that the Kingdom of God was taken away from Israel and given to a nation that would bear its fruits. As 1 Peter 2v9 shows, it was the ekklesia both Jew and Gentile in Christ the True Vine, that was the holy nation that bore the fruit.
However, in the last 2 years since March 2020 in light of the Deafening Silence of the Western Church (Traditional Institutional Church) and its compliance with a Secular Humanist Pagan State that has become insidiously Totalitarian. Does this mean that the Western Church by closing its doors and complying with all the rules of Statism has also unwittingly cried out 'We have no king but the State'.
Has it therefore also misunderstood that the State is ordained by God to be a terror to evil but in its massive overreach of its creational jurisdiction has its become a form of evil.
The wider implications are about God's creational structures like family, Government, education, business and the whole realm of human affairs that have sphere sovereignty that the State cannot and must not dictate to.
At the time of Christ, Israel was under Roman occupation.
