When Zionism Went Into Exile: The History of Israel (Part 2 of 5)
After the Second Temple falls in 70 CE, the Jewish story shifts from sovereignty to survival--and Zion becomes a memory carried through exile. In Part 2 of this five-part series on the history of Israel, Noam Weissman traces the path from the Bar Kokhba revolt and Rome’s crushing response to the rise of rabbinic Judaism, the Talmud, and the rituals that kept Jerusalem alive in daily Jewish life.
