James, Just to get the history straight, Nero became Emperor in 54AD, and was deposed by Galba in 68. Nero, either committed suicide, or was killed later that year. Galba was Emperor from 68 to 69. 69 must have been a turbulent year, as Galba went out, followed by Otho, Vitelius, and Vespatian, who reigned from 69 to 79. The Isrealites rebelled in 66, during Nero's reign. It doesn't say if he was in Judea, or not, but Jerusalem was not besieged, and the temple burned, until 70, so Nero could not have been there at that time. Nero was definitely a murderer of Christians though, as is duly noted in his rampage after Rome burned. I suppose this account is correct, because it came from the Encyclopedia Britannica. ~;=;o --haqi
