Detailed explanation-1: -985 villages were destroyed and most of the Jewish population of central Judaea was essentially wiped out – killed, sold into slavery, or forced to flee. Banished from Jerusalem, which was renamed Aelia Capitolina, the Jewish population now centered on Galilee, initially at Yavneh.
Detailed explanation-2: -According to Jewish tradition, the Romans deported twelve boatloads of Jews to Cyrenaica. Voluntary Jewish emigration from Judea in the aftermath of the Bar-Kokhba revolt also expanded Jewish communities in the diaspora.
Detailed explanation-3: -Knohl, who wrote ‘’The Messiah Before Jesus: The Suffering Servant of the Dead Sea Scrolls, ‘’ published by the University of California Press in October, he was most likely an Essene named Menahem who lived a generation later and was killed by Romans during the social upheaval that followed King Herod’s death in 4 B.C.
