And there's your problem. Jews didn't live in Jerusalem in the 7th century BC.
They were edomites that came to Judea around 150 bc, forced to live there by babylon or assyria or something like that, forgive my memory, and they were happy to do so and follow the judean laws because it was the land of their ancestors -- but here is the thing. Jacob is the promised son, Jacob is Israel, and Edomites aren't of Jacob.
