Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Judaea, now part of modern day Israel, had been a Roman ally since the second century BC and became a Roman province in 6 AD.
Detailed explanation-2: -Pompey had been asked to intervene in a dispute over inheritance to the throne of the Hasmonean Kingdom, which turned into a war between Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II.
