Simon
Bar Kochba-Prince of Israel-The Second Jewish Revolt
|
|
|
In
the fall of AD 131 the Jews in Israel declared war against
the tyranny of Rome for the second time. Their military
leader was Simon Bar Kochba, and their spiritual leader
Rabbi Akiba. Learning from the Romans, Simon used his coinage
as propaganda for their cause, with inscriptions that were
meant to keep hope alive and call for "The Redemption of
Israel," "The Freedom of Jerusalem," and some declare Simon
Bar Kochba the "Prince of Israel."

The
Shekel of Tyre
|
|
|
In ancient Jerusalem there was a chronic lack of good silver
coins. The only city nearby which produced them was Tyre,
a coastal city famous for the purple dye it extracted from
within the murex shell. As a hub of commerce, Tyre produced
many coins, and a good number found their way to Jerusalem.

The
First Jewish Revolt
|
|
|
The
war of the Jews against Rome did not begin suddenly. With
the appointment of the procurators clashes of short duration
were frequent, even during relatively quiet times. The final
straw that broke Jewish patience was the mistreatment by
Procurator Florus, even with the warning by the Emperor
Agrippa II that "Jews around the world will be devastated
by the enemy if you rebel." read
