The Wars of the Jews, also known as The History of the Destruction of Jerusalem or commonly referred to as The Jewish War, is an influential work by the 1st-century Jewish historian Josephus. This compelling narrative chronicles Jewish history from the pivotal capture of Jerusalem by Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 164 BC to the tragic fall and destruction of the city during the First Jewish-Roman War in AD 70. Written around 75 AD in Josephuss native tongue, likely Aramaic, this original text has unfortunately not survived. However, it was later translated into Greek, potentially under Josephuss own guidance. Our understanding of this tumultuous period is largely derived from Josephuss detailed account, as well as references found in the Talmud (gittin 57b) and midrash Eichah.
