Newer version of Spring can be found under group id org.springframework - Spring 4+

There is no reason to include all features of Spring Framework in one .jar. Spring is huge and you will probably won't use every feature of Spring. Including everything will cause unnecessary overhead. Pick what components you need add them to pom.xml and Maven will download them. If you found out later you need additional dependency just add it on the fly...

As an alternative you can use Spring Boot which will generate project for you with default set up. You can generate such a project using Spring Initializr Spring Boot Initializr. At the bottom click Switch to the full version. Pick what you need and hit generate project.
