Diaspora
The diaspora is the scattering of the Jews to countries outside of Palestine after the Babylonian captivity.
In his farewell address, Moses prophesied the Diaspora.
"It shall come about that as the LORD delighted over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so the LORD will delight over you to make you perish and destroy you; and you will be torn from the land where you are entering to possess it. Moreover, the LORD will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your fathers have not known. (Deuteronomy 28:63-64, NASB)
