Because of the Babylonian Captivity, Babylonia became the most important center of Jewish life during the Exile. The Jewish people survived in Babylon because the Babylonian policy allowed the Jews to settle in towns and villages along the Chebar River, which was an irrigation channel. The Jews were allowed to live together in communities; they were allowed to farm and perform other sorts of labor to earn income. Many Jews eventually became wealthy.
The Papacy did not exist in the 5th Century BCE. Nor did Christianity in any form - you are six centuries too early.
The Babylonian captivity was the time starting in 586BC when the ancient Babylonians under King Nebukadnessar II destroyed Yerushalayim, capital of Israel, and took most of the Israelite population captive. It lasted until Persia conquered Babylon in 539BC and the Israelis were gradually allowed to leave by Kurus the Great.
the Babylonian god of justice was Marduk ...... i think.
It depends on what aspect of Jewish history is being discussed. There is actually strong agreement between the Bible and the Babylonian accounts of the Judean-Babylonian Wars and the Babylonian Exile. The rest of the Biblical Account is neither confirmed nor denied by Babylonian writings.
The Babylonian Captivity which began in 626 BC and ended in 539 BC, was long before the first pope, Peter, took office in about 33 AD.

The major event preceding the Babylonian captivity was the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Jewish holy temple in the city.
That was the Babylonian exile, which followed the destruction of the First Temple in Jerusalem in 586 BCE.
