BBC - Ancient Rome: The Rise and Fall of an Empire.
Chapter 3: Rebellion 3/7.

This is the story of the largest to its date revolt in the Roman empire - The Great Revolt of Judea. A legacy of corrupted Roman governors and oppression would result in bloody violence, short timed independence of Judea-Edomea-Adiabene alliance, a civil war and finally destruction of Jerusalem and slaughter of Judean population by the legions. Despite its proportions and estimated 300 thousand victims, it was just the first chapter of Jewish-Roman wars. Even larger events of Quitos War and Bar-Kokhba revolt would shake the Middle East and Mediterranean to the core, causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands Jewish and Roman civilians, annihilation of entire Roman legions and Jewish armies with their allies. It would end with the doom of Judea, total destruction of its population, and enslavement of the survivors.

סיפור המרד הגדול הוא אחד הפרקים העצובים של עם ישראל לדורותיו, זהי פרשה של לוחמים יהודים עזי נפש שהצליחו להעיף בהרף עין את האימפריה הרומית מארץ ישראל, לכונן בריתות עם ממלכות באזור ולהשמיד את הצבא הרומי שהגיע מסוריה, לכונן משטר דמוקרטי ולהכריז עצמאות. אך זהו גם סיפור הכשלון באיחוד השורות, פילוג בעם, כתות קיצוניות, מלחמת אזרחים עקובה מדם, רציחה של מנהיגים שהיו מראשי המרד, וכתוצאה מפלה וחורבן. ללא הבנת העבר אין לנו את הזכות לבנות את העתיד, ולכן התובנה היא ברורה מכל - מלחמת אחים מובילה לאבדון.

  • Rome has never been completely destroyed as it will be in Revelation 17-I will be with the Alleluia chorus in Revelation 19-"Alleluia Salvation, glory and honor and power belong to the LORD our God. For true and righteous are his judgments because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication and has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her."

    Alleluia! For the LORD God Omnipotent reigns!!!
