  • new and portable forms of Jewish ritual life
  • a growing proportion of the Jewish population lived outside the Jewish polity, some through forcible exile, and some voluntarily in pursuit of economic ventures outside the Jewish state
  • conquest of the Hebrew kingdom of Judah, the Babylonians exiled the Jewish elite to Babylon

      Relating to Question #4,#5 1) Most Jewish Diaspora were located in Christian Europe. Later, however, the Jews were expelled and were forced to settle in POLAND. There, the population multiplied quickly. 2) Major "issue" : REVIVING THE HEBREW LANGUAGE.

      ELIEZER BEN-YEHUDA: main figure who worked to revive the language.  ANOTHER "ISSUE": revival of the Hebrew language conflicts with the language of the bible and the requirements of the modernized version of the bible. What's the use of reviving it?

      Reason for the Diaspora?- outside forces exiling Jews/Hebrews History:-Cyrus granted the Jews' return; Alexander the Great, ROMAN, forbid Jews to enter Jerusalem.-Hebrews had to remain in their Diasporas.

      Definition in the very first line - I guess the Jews were never able to fully restore their lives in Jerusalem. The Diaspora became their permanent lifestyle.  -MAIN SETTLEMENT IN RUSSIA: makes sense as mentioned before they settled in Poland. And Poland was absorbed by Russia temporarily. similar areas of settlement.
