In this stirring tale of the last days of the temple at Jerusalem, robber bands and political infighting set the stage for the Roman destruction of the city in A.D. 70.
In the face of overwhelming odds, John of Gamala does his best to save God's temple, harassing Roman work parties, burning Roman camps, defending Jerusalem during the Roman siege, and even facing Titus himself in hand-to-hand combat—-forging a relationship with the Roman leader that lasts until after the war. In spite of fighting a losing battle, John maintains his integrity and honor.
