5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I needed

I needed specific information and a first-hand testimony on the Judean revolt of 66-73 A.D. for a paper I was writing for one of my classes. Very helpful. However, I would not recommend for someone who is looking for light reading because the text can be difficult to understand since it was written by Josephus after he was captured by the Romans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Over my head.
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2013

I was interested in subject of this book and thought it would be an educating read. I think it would be if i could follow it. This book is hard to understand for a novice on subject like myself. The way the author makes references to people, places and events is confusing. In trying to be true to original text i understand why those who interpreted it wrote it this way but those not versed in subject will be left in the dark in my opinion.

1.0 out of 5 stars lies of the bible
Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2011
It's amazing how Josephus and the bible distort obvious historical fact - the burning of the Jerusalem Temple for example. The Zealots destroyed it, forcing the Romans to fight them, and then blaming the Romans for destroying it, when Herod the Roman built it in the first place! The Romans had no reason to destroy one of their great works of Art and tolerance, and Herod was certainly a Roman (see my book 'The Libyad'). A careful reading of Josephus, which is so contradictory it must have been severely edited later by christians, so as to be incoherent in its present state - it still shows that a small fanatical sect of Jews provoked the Destruction.
