saddest day in Jewish history

Rockstar · 10-10-06, 04:49 PM

Before I ask my question, I realize there is a truck load of websites and library books on the subject that can tell me what happened. But I'm hoping to find something I haven't been able to so far.

Is there any Jewish records that indicate or a respected rabbi who might know the ethnicity of the army that destroyed the second temple in 70. I know the Roman empire had a knack for pressing the conquered into the army but they normally dragged them off to another part of the empire where they had no sympathy or alligence. And if there were other people involved in the seige besides the roman army where did they come from? (arab, persian, etc)

In Daniel it says "and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary;"

I would like to know who and where those people came from?

Thanks
