Diaspora means ?dispersion? or ?scattering.? Basically, deportees were better off by the waters of Babylon, so the descendents of those deportees refused to rejoin the Persian Empire. So, the Jews dispersed to maintain their religion outside of the no-more independent Israel. They left behind many belongings and artifacts, and they had to change their entire way of life. However, this changed allowed the peoples to develop traditions such as synagogue, the Deuternomic code, and a stronger monotheistic belief. The Diaspora fostered a powerful sense of community and the belief that their people were protected by a watchful and beneficent deity.
