In De Vita Caesarum: Divus Vespasian, Suetonius records that "There had spread over all the Orient an old and established belief that it was fated at that time for men coming from Judaea to rule the world" [Cf. Daniel's prophecy & heathen prophet Balaam before]

Vespasian was so concerned w. the prophecy of Christ he attempted to exterminate the entire Davidic family line-even helpless old men were killed
