...there is the battle/siege of Jerusalem.
In the year 66 AD (click here) the Jews of Judea rebelled against their Roman masters. In response, the Emperor Nero dispatched an army under the generalship of Vespasian to restore order. By the year 68, resistance in the northern part of the province had been eradicated and the Romans turned their full attention to the subjugation of Jerusalem....
By 66 AD, most of the teaching and preaching had already taken place and Jerusalem was a Jewish city. I just wanted to make it clear, Jesus and his apostles were very successful in bringing a new vitality to a religious movement that would spawn strong resistance against a Roman legion. The siege of Jerusalem would last four years.
