Zusammenfassung: | "A detailed account on the Bar Kokhba Revolt in an attempt to understand the second revolt against the Romans. Since the Bar Kokhba Revolt did not have a historian who devoted a comprehensive book to the event, Mor used a variety of historical materials including literary sources (Jewish, Christian, Greek and Latin) and archaeological sources (inscriptions, coins, military diplomas, hideouts, and refuge complexes).

He exposes the Roman Army's part in Judaea, the Jewish leadership and the implications of the Revolt"-- "A detailed account on the Bar Kokhba Revolt in an attempt to understand the second revolt against the Romans.
