I'm going to keep it short, mainly because my fingers are starting to hurt really bad. The Israelites understood and agreed with the prophets teachings about God. They even followed the instructions, but after a while, they started to drift away from doing the instructions the prophets taught. Then when they noticed that their God was mad at them for not following instructions, they'd ask for forgiveness and keep it again, then drift away. It's like a cycle, you know?
Hope this helps! :)
