'''Computer Exercise:''' The Jewish People were the group who were forced to move from Judah to Babylon. Nebuchadnezzar was the king at this time and, to secure the area of Judah, he brought the two Jewish Kings, Jehoiachin and Zedekiah, to Babylon. He also forced a great number of Jews to relocate. This marked the beginnings of exile as the Jewish people were somewhat exiled from their homes in Judah. The Jewish people were mostly upper class and craftsmen.

'''Website:''' There were three expulsions of Jews to Babylon. The first of the three included the Jewish King, Jeconiah, and his court along with many others. The second of the three was exiling another Jewish King, Zedekiah, and the rest of the people. This one happened around 587 B.C. After an Babylonian-appointed governor, Gedaliah, was assassinated, there is a possibility that there was one more expulsion of Jews. This all ended, however, when Babylon fell.
