Why did Israel collapse under the Assyrian onslaught but Judah did not?
Israel's capital, Samaria, fell to the Assyrian conquest in 722 BCE. Judah had already become an Assyrian vassal around 734 BCE. Following a rebellion, the Assyrians unsuccessfully beseiged Jerusalem around 700 BCE. One key difference between Israel and Judah are that Israel was much more prosperous, so a prize worth fighting for. It was also geographically larger and closer to the Assyrian supply lines. Judah was a poor, mountainous region by comparison, and Jerusalem was particularly well defended. It made more sense for the Assyrians to accept land and a heavy tribute, in return for abandoning the siege of 700 BCE.
