No-one predicted the Babylonian Captivity. It was once thought that Isaiah did, because he wrote of the times of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, but then began to write of the Babylonian Exile. However, scholars now know that the Book of Isaiah was really written by two different people. Isaiah, known today as First Isaiah for convenience, wrote about the time of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, just as he outlined in the introduction to the Book. Another, anonymous author, living during the Babylonian Exile, added to the Book, based on his personal experiences during the Exile.
Yes, the book of Isaiah was written before the Babylonian exile.
The Babylonian exile was caused by the conquest of the Kingdom of Judah by the Babylonian Empire in 586 BCE. This was a result of the political and religious unrest in the region, as well as the failure of the Judean kings to submit to Babylonian rule. The Babylonians destroyed the Temple in Jerusalem and forced many Judeans into exile in Babylon for about 50 years.
The Babylonian exile showed that the warnings of the Torah (Leviticus ch.26) were serious and were prophecies that had now come true, with all that that implies. The Babylonian exile exonerated the true prophets such as Jeremiah, and exposed the lies of the false prophets.
The question answers itself. Specifically, the "Babylonian Exile" refers to the invasion of Judea by Babylon in 586 B.C.E. and the deportation of the Jewish population of Judea to Babylon. The Babylonian Exile ended in 534 B.C.E. when King Cyrus of Persia conquered Babylon and permitted the Jews in Babylon to return to the southern Levant.

In order for there to be a between, you need two points. The Rebuilding of the Jerusalem Temple after the Babylonian Exile is point 1. What is point 2? If you are going forwards, it would be the Persian Occupation, the Hellenistic Period, the Hasmonean Kingdom, and the Roman Occupation. If you are going backwards, it would be the Babylonian Exile, the Judean Period, and the Two Kingdoms Period.
