Answer 1

Hi there~

Jerusalem became the capital of the kingdom all thanks to King David.

In 1000 B.C, he conquered it to make it into a capital of the Jewish kingdom.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

It became the capital of the kingdom because Jerusalem was of major importance to the Hebrew people so the correct answer in this case is 2.

While other answers come close to being correct, the second one in this case is the only one that completely applies for this question.
