Why does this sound peculiar?.. Jerusalem was taken by the Romans, but
AFAIread, they didn't intefere with parts of the country not in
revolt. Even after the Bar-Kochba (sp?) revolt later (135?ce), Jews
were forbidden to live in Jerusalem itself, but allowed to remain
elsewhere, and when the Crusaders captured the City in 1099 or so,
Jews are mentioned as a significent part of the population that was
massacred.
