 | | Babylonian Slavery Egyptian Slavery was also used by the workforce working in the Stalin era and in Nazi concentration camps, deported from central Europe following the German-Soviet pact of 1939. | | | After this time, there were always sizable numbers of Jews living outside Eretz Israel; thus, it also marks the beginning of the "Jewish diaspora" (unless you consider the Assyrian Captivity of Israel to have been the beginning). | | | After the overthrow of Babylonia by the Persians, Cyrus gave the Jews permission to return to their native land (537 BCE), and more than forty thousand are said to have availed themselves of the privilege. |

| | The Chaldeans rounded up about forty thousand from Judah as captives, including political leaders and high priests, and took them to their capital, Babylon, while some people from Judah fled into Egypt or into Arabia, and some went north into Chaldean controlled Mesopotamia. | | | Like some other devout people who were to arrive in a big city, they found Babylon filled with wickedness and temptation, and in combating these temptations they clung desperately to their worship of Yahweh. | | | Believing like others that gods dwelled in places, the captives in Babylon asked themselves how they could "sing the Lord's song in a foreign land?" (Psalms 137:4) They wondered whether Yahweh had accompanied them to Babylon. |

| | A BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY, by Professor Revilo P. Oliver |
| | In 597-586 Nebuchadnezzer, trying to quiet the seething trouble-spot in his dominions, Judaea, where the Yids were constantly intriguing with both the Babylonians and the Egyptians and treacherously betraying each in turn, deported to Babylon and other regions a fairly large number of Jews. | | | As we now know from his inscriptions, Sargon of Assyria (5) in 721 B.C., endeavoring to keep peace in the land called Israel, transported several thousand members of the leading Samaritan (Israelite) families to Medea and other parts of his dominions, instead of massacring them, as would have been more in keeping with Assyrian policy. | | | The term "Babylonian Captivity" was used metaphorically by Petrarch to describe the removal of the Papal See from Rome to Avignon, which he especially deplored, because while it removed a focus of festering corruption, it also impoverished the inhabitants of the "Eternal City," for which Petrarch felt a cultural and scholarly patriotism. |

| | Encyclopedia: The Babylonian Captivity of the Papacy |
| | Thus began the seventy year period known as the “Babylonian Captivity of the Church” (1309-1378), during which the Popes increasingly lost touch with their spiritual goals, lost their spiritual and temporal prestige, and found the very foundations of their hierocratic vision for Christian society crumbling beneath their feet. | | | Another important event during the Captivity, and one which was related to the above conflict, was the publication of Marsilius of Padua's massive work the Defensor Pacis (Defender of the Peace). | | | Christian society was ripe for change all across the board, and as the existing power structures simply were not prepared for the coming shift out of Medievalism and into the Modern world it is equally unsurprising that they simply closed their minds to what was happening and sought refuge in their "traditional" dogmatic abstractions. |
