Talk:Jewish revolt against Heraclius

message: According to most Jewish sources, the Jews controlled Jerusalem during this period and animal sacrifice was resumed on the Temple mount, which is why it was turned into a garbage dump after the Byzantine reconquest. For religious, as well as modern political reasons, aknowledging the existance of a Jewish state after 70 CE is an anathma.Ericl (talk) 21:57, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Also, I forgot to add...Heraclaius didn't become emperor until his predecessor Phocas lost the entire Middle East to the Sassanid Persians in 610. there was no revolt against Heraclius.Ericl (talk) 22:09, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: This whole article is bogus

message: The main source is "David Consultants - Jewish History" - obvious Zionist sock-puppet, but now a dead link. The usual Wikipedia standard of excellence. Fourtildas (talk) 04:27, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  BOGUS source 

message: Dates are inconsistent throughout the article: did the revolt end with the execution of the leaders in 625, 628 or 629? Did Heraclius enter Jerusalem in 628, 629 or 630? These dates need to corrected or the discrepancies explained. DavisGL (talk) 08:22, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dates? 

message: The Sefer Zerubbabel says that Nehemiah ben Hushiel was killed in the fifth year which would be 619 during the month of Av (July - August). The Sefer Zerubbabel says that Nehemiah ben Hushiel thoroughly crushed corpse will be thrown down before the gates of Jerusalem. And 16 of the sixteen righteous shall be killed with him. Šērōy the king of Persia will attack and stab Nehemiah ben Hushiel and Israel. Problem is Kavadh II was king only during 628. He did make peace with Heraclius. Armilus then attacks. Armilus is thought to be a cryptogram for Heraclius.

The Persian conquest of Jerusalem in 614 compared with Islamic conquest of 638 says several months. It cites Sebeos' History chapter 24
This is what Sebeos' History chapter 24 say that the Iranian kings Governor was killed and the Jews had to flee and jump from the walls after a Christian’s rebellion and that it took 19 day to retake the city. The battle date is given as 27th day of the month of Marg the 11th month of the Armenian calandar, corresponding to June in the 25th year of the reign of Xosrov Apruez 615. 
After which Jerusalem was put to the sword 57,000 killed 35,000 taking into captivity. The Jews where then driven from the city and an archpriest named Modestos was put in charge.

Here is what I can online about Modestos.

So 
1: When was Nehemiah ben Hushiel killed 615, 617 or 619
2: When was Jerusalem given back to the Christians 615, 617 or 619. All seem to coincide with Nehemiah ben Hushiel's death.
