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.
