The fidelity, the veracity, and the probity of Josephus, are univer sally allowed and Scaliger in particular declares, that not only in the affairs of the J ews, but even of foreign nations, he deserves more credit than all the Greek and Roman writers put together. Certain at least it is, that he had that most essential qualification of an historian,-a perfect and accurate knowledge of all the transactions yhieh he relates; that he had no prejudices to mislead him in the representation of them; and that, above all, he meant no favour to the Christian cause. For even allow ing the so much controverted passage, in which he is supposed to bear testimony to Christ, to be genuine, it does not appear that he ever he came a convert to His religion, but continued probably a melons J cw to the end of his life.

This book is an autobiography written by Josephus, a Jewish historian who lived in the 1st century CE and witnessed firsthand the siege of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Second Temple by the Romans. The book is an invaluable source of information about this tumultuous period in Jewish history, and it offers insights into the political, social, and religious dynamics of the time. Josephus provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the siege, including the growing tensions between the Jewish population and the Roman authorities. He also describes the course of the siege itself, the suffering it inflicted upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the eventual fall of the city. Josephus's personal experiences and observations as a participant in these events lend a unique perspective to his account, making it an essential read for anyone interested in ancient Jewish history.
