“So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the Lord have spoken it.”
Jerusalem's fate serves didactic function for surrounding nations; executed judgment teaches pagan peoples about YHWH's power and rebellion's severity.
