Komunitas Yahudi di Babilonia meliputi Ezra sang Ahli Taurat, yang kembali ke Yudea pada akhir abad ke-6 SM yang dikaitkan dengan perubahan sigifikan dalam perayaan ritual Yahudi dan pembangunan kembali Bait Allah. Talmud dikompilasikan di Babilonia, diidentifikasikan dengan Irak modern.[4]
Dari zaman Babilonia sampai kebangkitan kekhalifahan Islam, komunitas Yahudi di Babilonia menjadi pusat pembelajaran Yahudi. Invasi Mongol dan diskriminasi Islam pada Abad Pertengahan berujung pada pembersihannya.[5] Di bawah Kekaisaran Utsmaniyah, Yahudi di Irak diperlakukan dengan baik. Komunitas tersebut mendirikan sekolah-sekolah modern pada paruh kedua abad ke-19.[6]
Pada abad ke-20, Yahudi Irak memainkan peran penting pada hari-hari awal kemerdekaan Irak. Antara 1950–52, 120,000–130,000 komunitas Yahudi Irak (sekitar 75%) dibawa ke Israel dalam Operasi Ezra dan Nehemia.[7]

Estimate based on the 1947 census, amounting to 2.6% of the total population. Ben-Yaacob et al. note that some studies suggest that the total population of Iraqi Jews "in the late 1940s" could have been as high as 135,000, given that 123,500 were estimated to have immigrated to Israel between 1948 and 1951, and that 6,000 still remained in Iraq after the mass immigration.

The Prime Minister referred to the increasing difficulty of assuring the protection of the Jews resident in Iraq, under the present circumstances. In answer to an observation by Mr. de Boisanger, who wondered whether Tel Aviv was interested in the fate of the Jews of Iraq, the Prime Minister explained that he was not thinking in terms of persecution; he did not wish the Commission to receive a false impression with regard to his personal sentiments towards the Jews. But if the Jews continued to show the bad faith that they had demonstrated until the present moment, events might take place. (The Prime Minister did not clarify this warning)
