Following the unopposed capture of Jerusalem, control of the city was handed to Nehemiah ben Hushiel and Benjamin of Tiberias. Nehemiah was then appointed the ruler of Jerusalem.

Nehemiah ben Hushiel was described as a leader of the Jewish revolt against Heraclius. Nehemiah ben Hushiel appears in the 7th century Jewish book Sefer Zerubbabel where he represents the Messiah ben Joseph.

After the combined forces of Persia and the Jews captured Jerusalem in 614 CE without resistance, Nehemiah was then appointed the ruler of Jerusalem. He began the work of making arrangements for the building of the Third Temple, and sorting out genealogies to establish a new High Priesthood.

I ask to get pinged by Cronos.

Per the rules - I’ll hit abuse.

Stop pinging me to your garbage posts!
