| Title: Flavius Josephus' Account of the Anti-Roman Riots Preceding the 66-70 War, and its Relevance for the Reconstruction of Jewish Eschatology during the First Century A.D. Volume: 16-17 Pages: 183-205 Type: Journal Article Year: 1984 Abstract: "The article examines the different incidents of anti-Roman riots from Herod's death to the outbreak of the A.D. 66-70 war as described by Josephus and other sources. The various movements in 1st-century A.D. Judaism differed in their views of how to assure God's eschatological intervention. Whereas the Zealots were prepared for a fight that was to extend to heaven, Theudas and the ""Egyptian"" wished to create an ""eschatological situation"" that had been announced beforehand in the Scriptures - precisely what Jesus wanted to do in driving out the moneychangers from the Temple. D.J.H.Une �tude tr�s d�taill�e et pr�cise des passages parall�les de Ant. et de Bell. qui traitent des diverses r�voltes anti-romaines qui men�rent � la guerre permet � P. de conclure: - que ""Jewish eschatology in the first century A.D. consisted essentially in finding a way to ""force God's hand"", to assure God's intervention; and that the different currents within Judaism differed in their views of how to bring this about"", - que la perspective eschatologique des Pharisiens et des Z�lotes �tait dans ce sens identique; - et que par contre, la perspective de Th�udas, de l ""Egyptien"" et de J�sus �tait diff�rente de celle des Z�lotes: ""While the Zealots were prepared for a fight which was to extend to heaven, Theudas and the ""Egyptian"" wished to create an ""eschatological situation"" which had been preannounce in the Scripture: precisely what Jesus had wanted to do in driving out the money-changers from the Temple"". // The article examines the different incidents of anti-Roman riots from Herod's death to the outbreak of the A.D. 66-70 war as described by Josephus and other sources.
