This happens because of the captivity in Babylon?
They learned the wire there, and back to Israel entered the language?

Yes, they learned Aramaic in the Babylonian exile. It seems, though, that when they returned there was a Hebrew revival, and for a while Hebrew was spoken again, but this seems to have fallen out of favor fairly quickly, and by the first century BCE, most of the documents we have are again in Aramaic.
