The central crisis was attraction to foreign cultures and prcatices as well as gods known as Idolatry.
after sever years of warning to the people of Israel through Prophets such as Elijah,Isaiah, and Jeremiah, the people were carried over into captivity. the suffering they went through in their captivity in babylon made them to look again to Yahweh for deliverance. God kept his promise and delivered them from Babylon after the Seventy years he had promised through Jeremiah,ushering in the second Jewish era of strict monotheism.
