The three major groups were; those who remained in Judah, those who moved to Egypt and those in captivity in Babylon. They were related to each other because the communities in Judah, Egypt, and Babylon found new ways to think about, speak about, and engage the presence of God, even in very different contexts.
The Code of Hammurabi can tell us much about ancient Babylonian society, but cannot show us everything. The law code was written for the audience of Babylonian people in its own day, especially the scribes and officers of the law. So there are many questions we would have from a distance much later in history that people then would have understood without needing explanation. The intention of the law code was to inform people of laws and punishments, not to give later generations a full view of the whole of Babylonian life. The law code was prepared by those in power in the government of Hammurabi -- we don't get any response from the people or indication of how the people then viewed the laws. And ultimately, the law code is written in a detached, impersonal way -- as legal documents generally are written. We don't get a feel for the personal lives or feelings of people living at that time in Babylonia.

The explosion of the Maine in Cuba on February 15, 1898 was ruled by a Naval Court of Inquiry in March of 1898 as caused by a mine explosion. Subsequantly many different views of what caused the explosion have been put forward to a fire in her coal bunkers to a fire in her powder magazines. In 1976 a group of American Naval Investigators concluded that a fire ignited the Maines magazines.
The answer to the question however remains that experts cannot definitively say what the cause of the explosion was.
