Abstract: "The authors treat again the question of chronological order raised by Josephus' Bellum II, 408 and 433 f. They believe that Josephus relates two different events, that means: Menahem conquered masada, went to Jerusalem, returned to the fortress and back toJerusalem; after his death Eleazar b. Yair fled back to the place which served as place of refuge for other people, including 'men of the community' and Samaritans". - Michael Mach
