In NT times

even if they claim that the Assyrians were God's punishment or something
which makes no sense
all the super religious Catholic countries have orgies and stuff...

Yes when they would get conquered
just accept its about extroversion and introversion

it often followed after a period of degeneracy
but it's like
the King was bad so God punished him
Orgies kek
Religious

by having Assyria invade and burn the entire country and slaughter countless Jews
oh okay? what was the King's punishment?
Ye man I am religious just cuz I say so
he had to pay them money he already had
well
pedophilia and homosexuality bothers me
The country is his
Monarchy is private government
The Tablets to the Rulers were written by Baha'u'llah between 1867 and circa 1873. Baha'u'llah's declaration of his station to the monarchs and rulers of the world was self-consciously modelled on the similar declaration of Muhammad to the rulers of his own time. It constituted an important part of his self-revelation, coming on the whole after his declaration to the Babis, and before (or in a few instances contemporaneously with) his issuance of the Most Holy Book, which comprised the laws and ordinances of the new Baha'i religion. In these epistles he not only declared his station as the promised one of all religions, but for the first time began elaborating on the social principles of his religion, founded in 1863. From late in 1863 to summer of 1868, Baha'u'llah was resident in Edirne (Adrianople), to which he was exiled by Ottoman Sultan Abdulaziz (r. 1861-1876).
And the destruction of the country damages his estate
And all those Jews
thats where he derives his revenue and power
In the Surat al-Muluk, Tablet of the Kings, written in Edirne in 1867, he collectively and apostrophically addressed the rulers of the world. He called upon monarchs to be just, and to reduce the size of their armies so as to allow for smaller budgets and greater prosperity, and pointed out that if they resolved their problems diplomatically they would need only the forces necessary to repel invaders from their borders. He thus implicitly invoked the strategic principle that an attack requires a three to one numerical superiority over the enemy, so that defensive armies can be much smaller than offensive ones. He complained that military budgets were increasing daily, resulting in oppressive taxes on the subjects: "O kings of the earth! We see you increasing every year your expenditures, and laying the burden thereof on your subjects. This, verily, is wholly and grossly unjust . . . do not rob them to rear palaces for yourselves" (POB, p. 12). He insisted that it was the state's responsibility to take care of the poor.
So its a punishment to the king
To Christian rulers he said that he was the spiritual return of Christ whom they were awaiting. (Alvah-i Nazilih khitab bi Muluk, pp. 8, 9, 11). He castigated the French ambassador in Istanbul for colluding with the Iranian envoy against Baha'u'llah. He condemned the Ottoman authorities for substituting their own principles for those of God, for hypocrisy, and for unjustly banishing Baha'u'llah from Baghdad and then Istanbul and Edirne (Muluk, 18-20). He denied opposing the sultan, and urged him to gather around himself upright ministers with whom he should consult. He sternly criticized the great gap between the wealthy and the poor in the empire, and more especially in Istanbul, and urged the sultan to intervene to distribute wealth more equitably (Muluk, 34, 36, 40). He reproached the Iranian ambassador, Mirza Husayn Khan, the Mushiru'd-Dawlih, for intriguing against him. He ended by addressing the Muslim clergy and philosophers of Istanbul, urging them to recognize his authority as God's spokesman and to be humble before God (Muluk, 49-51, 65-70).
so the populace who probably did nothing wrong are punished by getting killed, enslaved and raped?
and so on and on'
and his dynasty because the successors will inherit the disasters
but the king just needs to give the Assyrians tribute?
I mean... really?
Yep
Your subjects get crushed
**bruh**
They asked for it
