Best Answer

The exile of Judah (the tribe of Yehudah) is the same thing as the Babylonian Exile, which took place for seventy years, some 2500 years ago. The Babylonians, who destroyed the First Temple, exiled the people of Judah to Babylon; and they were allowed to return to Israel (Judea) seventy years later, under Cyrus. (Actually, it involved the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The other ten Israelite tribes weren't involved, since they had already been exiled 133 years earlier, and ended up in more distant locations.)
