military leader in Galilee. After the the Romans invaded, killing thousands, Josephus and one of his
soldiers surrendered to the Roman forces. He became a prisoner and provided the Romans with
intelligence on the ongoing revolt. He appears to have played some role as a negotiator with the
defenders of Jerusalem in 70. In 71, he arrived in Rome in the entourage of Titus, becoming a Roman
citizen. It was while in Rome, and under Flavian patronage, that Josephus wrote all of his works.The
works of Josephus were studied for nearly 2,000 years by scholars, pastors, students, and everybody
interested in history. Josephus writes in enlightened and provocative style. He offers information about
individuals, groups, customs and geographical places. His writings provide a significant, extra-biblical
account of the Maccabees, the Hasmonean dynasty and the rise of Herod the Great. He makes
references to the Sadducees, Jewish High Priests of the time, Pharisees and Essenes, the Herodian
Temple, the Zealots, and to such figures as Pontius Pilate, Herod the Great, Agrippa I and Agrippa II,
John the Baptist, James the brother of Jesus. The Josephus' books provide the most important
contemporary reference to Jesus Christ.The updated translations of Josephus' works by William Whiston
are easy to read and are essential to understanding of the first century Jerusalem, the time of Christ and
the New Testament.CONTENTS:1. Wars of the Jews or Jewish War or the History of the Destruction of
