A:Some Jews were deported in 597 BCE, but the main exile took place in 586 BCE and is regarded as the beginning of the Babylonian Exile. Not all the residents of Judah were deported, but those who were deported considered those who remained behind as inferior and would not allow them to be involved in nation-building after the Return from Exile.

The Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar conquered Jerusalem in 586 BCE, destroyed the Temple, and exiled the people. Fifty years later, when Babylon was conquered by the Persians, King Cyrus allowed the Jews to return to their homeland and granted them autonomy. Found at mfa . gov

The Babylonian captivity or is the period in Jewish history during which a number of Judahites of the ancientKingdom of Judah were captives in Babylonia. After the Battle of Carchemish in 605 BCE, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, besieged Jerusalem, resulting in tribute being paid by King Jehoiakim. Jehoiakim refused to pay tribute in Nebuchadnezzar's fourth year, which led to another siege in Nebuchadnezzar's seventh year, culminating with the death of Jehoiakim and the exile of KingJeconiah, his court and many others; Jeconiah's successor Zedekiah and others were exiled in Nebuchadnezzar's eighteenth year; a later deportation occurred in Nebuchadnezzar's twenty-third year. The dates, numbers of deportations, and numbers of deportees given in the biblical accounts vary.[2]These deportations are dated to 597 BCE for the first, with others dated at 587/586 BCE, and 582/581 BCE respectively
