When did Judah come back to Israel?
The wording of this question is confusing. "Judah" was the name of the country and after Judah was conquered by the Assyrians, it never asserted independence again under that name. "Israel" is also confusing because Israel was the kingdom to the North of Judah whose inhabitants stopped associating themselves with that State by the time of the Persian Empire. If your question means to say "When were the Judeans allowed to return to Canaan following the Babylonian Exile?" the answer is the 520s-510s BCE.
Did the Jews return home after the exile?
It depends on the exile in question. Most Jews that wanted to returned to Land of Israel after the exile in Babylonia on account of Cyrus the Great. Many Jews have returned to Israel in the last 150 years from the Roman Exiling of the Jews nearly 2000 years ago. However, not all Jews have returned home after exile in both cases.
What city was the capital of the ancient Israelites?
Simple AnswerJerusalem was the first capital of the Israelites after it was captured by King David in about 1000 BCE. It remained the capital of Judah (after whom the Jews are named) and stayed the capital even after the Roman conquests, temporarily being renamed Aelia Capitolina.More DetailIf you're referring to the United Monarchy of Israel, prior to the capture of Jerusalem, that country was ruled from several different cities. The cities that served as capitals of Ancient Israel include Shiloh during the tribal period, Gibeah (Giv'ah) during the reign of Saul, and Hebron during the early Davidic Kingdom. Once King David conquered Jerusalem, he transferred the capital there and Solomon kept the capital in Jerusalem. After Solomon died, the United Monarchy split into two separate countries, the Northern Kingdom of Israel and Southern Kingdom of Judah.If you're referring to the Northern Kingdom of Israel (the kingdom of the Ten Tribes) as distinct from that of Judah, it should be noted that after the Kingdom of Israel split into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the South Kingdom of Judah, there was a rapid succession of capitals in the North. The capitals of the North included: Shechem (now called Nablus), Penuel, and Tirzah, before settling on Samaria (Shomron). Jerusalem remained the capital of Judah up until the Babylonian Exile and during the Hasmonean Kingdom. Jerusalem is the current capital of the State of Israel although most nations refuse to officially recognize it as such because of its disputed status and maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv.

"Pre-exilic" refers to the time period in ancient Israelite history before the Babylonian exile, which took place in the 6th century BCE.

The pre-exilic period is significant for understanding the development of Israelite religion and identity.
What was the exile of Judah?
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.)
Who ruled Israel in 587 bce?
There was no Israel in 587 BCE. Israel was destroyed by the Assyrians in 722 BCE.If perhaps the question was referring to the Kingdom of Judah which would be destroyed one year later by the Babylonians, the King of Judah at that time was King Zedekiah son of Josiah.
What religion did the faith of the israelites become known as?
The faith of the Israelites became known as Judaism. This is because, though the entire nation was known as Israel, but Rehoboam broke away and called his own kingdom Israel, taking 10 of the original 12 Israelite tribes with him. The two tribes left in the south were Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, the far larger of which was Judah, so the southern kingdom came to be known as such. Therefore, those living in Judah, were called Jews. After the Babylonian exile, the kingdom of Israel to the north was dispersed, and the 10 tribes of that kingdom were lost, leaving only Judah to carry on the Israelite faith. Thus, the only people left who believed in the God of Abraham were those from Judah - Jews. Accordingly, the religion they believed in was called Judaism.

Somewhat later, in 597 BCE, many people from Judah, the Southern Kingdom, were exiled to Babylon, and returned to Judea about 70 years later. It was from these people of "Judea" that the "Jews" descended.

King Saul.Archaeologists such as Israel Finkelstein of Tel Aviv University say there is no evidence there ever was a United Monarchy of Israel. It is likely that the legend that Kings Saul, David and Solomon ruled over a magnificent united Hebrew kingdom came about after the Assyrian conquest of Israel in 722 BCE. By the time of the Babylonian Exile, the people of Judah, the southern kingdom, were beginning to refer to themselves as 'Israelites' and were beginning to see themselves as the true inheritors of the rich Israelite territory.
