Beginning: the year 537 B.C. was the time when the decree was issued by King Cyrus for the return of the Jews to Palestine and that the temple was begun to be rebuilt in the fall of this same year 537 B.C. The building work was carried on, and the house of Jehovah was completed on the third day of Adar in the sixth year of Darius (probably March 6 of 515 B.C.E.), after which the Jews inaugurated the rebuilt temple and held the Passover.

The Jews were compelled to remain in Babylon for seventy years. After that they were permitted to return to Israel (Judea) and tens of thousands did so, but many more remained in Babylon (and elsewhere) voluntarily, for many centuries.
The majority were killed shortly after arrival; the others were worked to death.

For he'd held her captive for so long, it was entirely too hard to grasp freeing her.
No. Long before they were ever taken/exiled to Babylon, the Hebrews/Jews/Israelites were a vibrant, flourishing nation in what is now Israel.

The Babylonian Captivity was from 586 B.C.E. to 532 B.C.E. or 54 years.
On May 23, 1430, she was taken captive and she was burned at the stake a year later on May 30, 1431. She was held captive for one year and a week.
Masada is Jewish. Herod the Great did some extensive building at Masada. Later in the Jewish wars with Rome Masada was well fortified and the Jews held the Romans off for many long months. When the Romans had advanced to the point of capturing the Jews a pact was made and the Jews killed each other so that they would not be taken captive.
The Hebrews remained in Judah. Their aristocracy was taken to Babylon to rule local peoples, and a new aristocracy was brought in to rule Judah. There were three waves of these relocations - 597 BCE, 587 BCE and 582 BCE. When Persia took over Babylon they allowed the Jews there to return to try to reclaim their old lands. Half decided to remain in Babylonia as they had become well and prosperously established there. The half who began to return to Judea from 538 BCE onwards had mixed fortunes - many could not prove their claims to land, others were successful. The return took place in a series of waves until 520 BCE.

The accounts of the Exodus are close to the hearts of Jews during and after Exile because in the beginning of Exodus, the Israelites were living as slaves in a foreign land, Egypt. The Jews of the Exile had a similar experience living in Babylon as captive subjects of a mighty empire. Also the people of the Exodus struggled in a frightening and hostile wilderness. Similarly, the exile Jews made a long, painful journey to Babylon, and back again to Judah some 50 years later. Lastly and most important for the Jews was Gods Revelation to their ancestors in the wilderness. Through Moses the people of Israel discovered the identity of their God, and through the Covenant, they found their own identity as people. Similarly, in Babylon, after representing of their sins, the exiles rediscovered their true identity as God's beloved. -- written in out hearts third edition
