The orientations films has confirmed that the purpose was to create "a large-scale communal research compound where scientists and free-thinkers from around the globe could pursue research in meteorology, psychology, parapsychology, zoology, electromagnetism, and Utopian social-[static]."
But also the barracks video said that the mission was to study its unique properties.

Thanks to michaelk for the heads up.
We learned in Dead is Dead, he was banished from the island for allegedly having a daughter with an outsider. Ben seemed to be leading the fight to get him off.
How did Ben Fool Widmore?

Thanks to GregDean for the following.
Although we do not know of any relationship to Jacob, as seen in "The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham", Matthew Abaddon's role in the battle for the Island is as a man who works for Charles Widmore, making sure that people who are supposed to be on the Island, get to the Island.

Thanks to razzle dazzle
As seen in Episode 5x06 "316", the exact circumstances of the first crash must occur again in order for Jack and the rest to return to the island, meaning that it has to be Jack(instead of taking his father's coffin, it's Locke's coffin), Kate, Sun, Hurley(now carrying a similar instrument as Charlie, becoming the new Charlie), and Sayid(who is being guarded by a marshal, similar to Kate in the first crash)

Thanks to GregDean for the text.
As explained in "The Constant", there is a phenomenon that happens to people who come near the Island who have been exposed to high levels of radiation or electromagnetism. In Desmond's case, it was electromagnetism from the Swan station imploding. For Minkowski, it was radiation from his communication station. For Daniel Faraday, it was from doing all those experiments on Eloise without wearing his protective gear over his head.
