What did Rabbi Yohanan ben Zakkai do?

The great Jewish sage Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakai lived at the end of the 2nd temple period and was one of the spiritual leaders of his generation - the generation of "Tanna'im". See the link for more information about the great Rabbi who codified many laws following the destruction of the 2nd Temple in Jerusalem in 70 CE (AD). Considered to have been the youngest disciple of the great sage Hillel, Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakai took an active role in the defense of Jerusalem under Roman siege in 68-70 CE (AD). He is reputed to have been secreted from the city in a burial shroud on a stretcher, then approaching the camp of (Roman commander & Syrian Governor) Vespasian, greeting him with the words "Hail my lord Emperor". During his discussions with Vespasian a messenger arrived to recall Vespasian to Rome, as the Senate had appointed him Emperor following the death of Nero. In the light of this, Vespasian acceded to some requests by Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakai, granting permission to set up a school of Jewish scholars in the town of Yavneh. Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakai founded "Dor Yavneh" (The Yavneh generation), re-establishing the Sanhedrin and beginning to codify laws defining Torah study and prayer as the way forward for the Jews and Jewish religion, in a world without a Temple in Jerusalem, which had always been the centre for ritual Temple sacrifice as instructed in the Books of Moses. These laws, developed by different rabbinical schools in Judea, were later collected and codified into the Mishna-Torah by Rabbi Yehuda Hanassi.
