java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.servlet.jsp.el.ImplicitObjectELResolver$ImplicitObjects$6
This indicates a classpath problem related to the JSP API (javax.servlet.jsp.*).
And indeed, you've the below dependency:
<!-- JSP Library -->
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet.jsp</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.servlet.jsp-api</artifactId>
<version>2.3.1</version>
</dependency>
Get rid of it. Or at least set <scope>provided</scope> on it as you correctly did for the Servlet API dependency. Tomcat as being a JSP/Servlet container already ships with it out the box which is clearly of a different version than the one you tried to bundle along with the webapp.
You're not supposed to ship any libraries along with the webapp which are already provided by the target runtime itself. It would only result in conflicts in the runtime classpath because of duplicate different versioned classes colliding each other.
A dubious alternative would be to fix and align the version, but this is a terribly bad idea as your webapp would be unportable to other servletcontainers using a different JSP/Servlet API version under the covers.
