S.G.F. Brandon (1951)
"The apparent cruciality of this event for Christianity has been the subject of our investigation, and the
conclusion has been reached that that cruciality is a fact of profound historical significance for the
understanding of the nature of Christian Origins. It would indeed not be an exaggeration to say that
Christianity was in a certain sense reborn as a result of the Jewish catastrophe of A.D. 70... in the
overthrow of the Jewish state the old wine-skins of Judaism were burst asunder and perished,
liberating the new wine to flow freely abroad and to reach maturity in places more congenial to the
original genius of its creator. Thus we may conclude that, after the Resurrection experiences, the next
most crucial event in the life of the Christian Church was the overthrow of the Jewish nation, which
was dramatically epitomized in the destruction of its holy city of Jerusalem in A.D. 70" (The Fall of
Jerusalem and the Christian Church, pp. 249, 251)
