Verse mentions:: 6

Babylonia was the ancient empire centered on the city of Babylon, in the region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. Under Nebuchadnezzar it conquered Judah, destroyed Jerusalem's temple, and carried the population into exile, an event that shapes much of the Old Testament's prophetic and historical books.
