66 A.D.: The Last Revolt

MOVIE DESCRIPTION:

Circa 66 A.D., Jewish high priests in the Holy Land - who had not only tolerated but embraced Roman rule for centuries - suddenly bucked this authority with an open act of defiance that prompted civil war throughout the Roman Empire. The 'revolt' in question simultaneously qualified as a religious and political act of rebellion and was directly intertwined with the rise of Christianity and the ministry of Jesus; precipitous in nature, it sparked tumult that tore apart the fabric of the Roman Empire. As produced by and originally screened on the A&E network, 66 A.D.: The Last Revolt offers a feature-length documentary exploration of these little-known events, supplemented by interviews with historians including Allen Callahan and Walter Zanger. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
