Explanation:

Question 17

In historical and religious context (related to Hebrew history), Solomon is known for his building projects in Jerusalem, including the temple and a grand palace. Samuel was a prophet/judge, Saul was the first king (but not known for this building campaign), and Moses led the Hebrews out of Egypt, not building in Jerusalem.

Historically, the Babylonians (under Nebuchadnezzar) captured Jerusalem, destroyed the First Temple, and deported Hebrews (the Babylonian Captivity). The Persians later allowed return, Hittites were in Asia Minor, and Assyrians had earlier conflicts but not this specific destruction of the temple and deportation.

Answer:

B. Solomon (assuming the options are labeled as A. Samuel, B. Solomon, C. Saul, D. Moses)
