The most significant exile occurred in 586 B.C. when the Babylonians conquered Jerusalem, destroyed the Temple, and deported many Jews to Babylon. This event was seen as a divine judgment for the people's disobedience and idolatry. The exile was a time of reflection, repentance, and eventual hope for restoration, as prophesied by figures like Jeremiah and Ezekiel.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/1546.htm">galuth</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an exile<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>exiles* (4).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">גָּלוּ</font> K<sup>§ 61. 4</sup>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>exile</b></font>;
