More to the Story: How Did Rome Maintain Power?
Air Date: 2025-07-02
Runtime: minutes
Overview
With their belief in just one God, Messianic hopes, and fierce national identity, the Jewish people were notoriously difficult for Rome to rule. Only the threat and show of force kept the people in line…and only for a time.
You can see a vivid example of Romans keeping the “peace” through violence in Season 5, Episode 5, now streaming on Prime Video.
