Explanation:

The Jewish Diaspora refers to the dispersion of Jewish people from their homeland. The destruction of the Jewish temple by the Romans in 70 C.E. and the subsequent forced exile of Jews from Canaan is a well - documented historical event that is widely regarded as a significant beginning of the Jewish Diaspora. The first option about the belief in Jesus as the messiah causing Jews to leave is not the main event that began the Diaspora. The Diaspora was more related to political and military actions (the Roman destruction) rather than an internal religious debate about the messiah at that scale.

Answer:

The second option: Around 70 C.E. the romans destroyed the Jewish temple and forced the Jews to leave their homeland, Canaan.
