Best Answer

This could apply in two different ways, both somewhat related. The assumption is the question refers to Old Testament history of the divided kingdom.

Firstly, Israel and Judah fell into the gross sin of idolatry and worshiped heathen idols, which they had specifically been commanded not to do. They fell spiritually, with then the resultant moral decay that accompanied such worship.

Secondly, and as a direct consequence, they suffered by falling militarily and were overthrown by foreign powers. Israel 'fell' in this way to the Assyrians. Judah 'fell' to Babylon. Both nations were taken captive, although a few 'stragglers' were left behind.
