Several thousand years ago, the majority of Jews spoke Ancient (or Biblical) Hebrew (this is to distinguish the language from Modern Hebrew, which is fairly different), now a dead language. Biblical Hebrew is a Semitic language, related to Arabic. It eventually died out except as a religious language to be learned to read from the Torah. However, in the middle of the 19th century, there began to be a much stronger movement for a Jewish homeland, and a such, a language to unify everyone. Modern Hebrew was created out of Biblical Hebrew, with some undertones of Yiddish and Slavic languages.
Hebrew has always been the traditional language for Israelite and Jewish prayer, every day of the year. The Hebrew Bible and its commentaries are (and have been) studied in their Hebrew text, while the Talmud is (and was) learned in its mixture of Hebrew and closely-related Aramaic. Outside of Torah-study and prayer, in daily conversation and business matters we use (and have used) whatever is the local language, or Yiddish instead.
