From a secular perspective, the empires that conquered the Israelites (Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Macedonian Greeks, and Romans) were significantly larger than Israel and could mobilize much larger militaries than whatever the Israelites could bring to bear. From a religious perspective, the Israelites were defeated because they stopped praying to God and, therefore, God withdrew his protection from the people.
