The period that began after the fall of Judah in 597 BCE is known as the Babylonian exile. The Babylonians, under King Nebuchadnezzar, captured Jerusalem, destroyed the Temple, and exiled many of the people of Judah to Babylon. This marked a significant shift in Jewish history and had lasting effects on the development of Judaism.
Babylonia.
The Babylonians destroyed the First Temple and forcibly exiled the remainder of Israel's population to Babylonia.While the Jews were permitted to return to Israel (Judea) seventy years later, and tens of thousands did so (and rebuilt the Temple), most of them remained in Babylonia, while others began to settle in North Africa, southern Europe, the Crimea, throughout the Near East and elsewhere.
Some have dated the 3 successive invasions of Judah by Babylon to be during the period of 604-586 BC. A more traditional starting year has been 597 BC.
The Kingdom of Judah was conquered by the Babylonians at around 587 BCE. At that time most Israelites except some of the poorest were captured and taken into exile to Babylon in several stages.
