הנני חדש בפורום
ומעולם לא למדתי היסטוריה של העם היהודי. ידעתי שהיה מרד של בר כוכבא נגד הרומאים. ברם, בשוטטי באתרי האינטרנט נתקלתי בקטע הבא: According to the ancient accounts (mainly Cassius Dio, who wrote around 200 AD, and Eusebius, the early fourth century Bishop of Caesarea) the Diaspora revolt started in Cyrenaica (northeast Libya) at a time when the Emperor Trajan had, for the purposes of annexing Parthia and its valuable Mesopotamian territory, constituted a huge eastern army at the price of withdrawing many small contingents which had served to keep order in various parts of the Empire. The Jews attacked the Greek and Roman civilian population and it is said that they killed 220,000 in Cyrenaica, amusing themselves in various gruesome ways. The revolt then spread to Egypt where the Jews killed an unknown number, and to Cyprus, where they are said to have killed 240,000. In Alexandria, however, the predominantly Greek population gained control of events and are said to have massacred that city. Recent archeological evidence indicates that the ancient accounts are not exaggerated השאלה שלי: האם באמת היה המרד הזה ולמה לא שמעתי עליו עד כה ממקורות יהודיים?
