The emperor Tiberius is rarely given any credit for his military abilities, but in reality he was one of Rome's better generals. He was not in any historically important battles, remember he lived during the Pax Romana. He did lead a force along with Marcus Agrippa to negotiate and if necessary fight to recover the standards that the Parthians had captured from Crassus and Marc Antony. He led a force into Armenia and settled matters there. He was then set to Transalpine Gaul and won the battle of Raetia. Augustus also used him in the trouble sports in Pannonia and in Germany.

Did Tiberius have any struggles?

Tiberius was a reluctant emperor. He said that he was too old, that he did not want to be an emperor and that he wanted only a limited part of the imperial powers. This was rejected and he had to take on the full imperial powers, but it was said that he refused the titles bestowed on an emperor, the emblem of Princeps and the Civic Crown. He wanted the senate and the bureaucracy to get on with state affairs. He issued only vague orders which were difficult to interpret, especially in the area of legislation. The Roman legions in the north mutinied as they had not been paid and Tiberius did not issue instructions on that matter. Germanicus, a general, and Dusus (Tiberius' son) were sent with a small force to put down the rebellion. Germanicus led the legions on a campaign across the river Rhine and said that the war booty would be their bonus. The campaign was victorious and was successful in quelling the mutiny. In 18 AD Germanicus was given the command of the Roman troops in the eastern part of the Roman Empire. However he died one year later and accused Piso, the governor of Syria, of poisoning him while he was dying. Piso was tried, but he threatened to implicate Tiberius. Since the senate was hostile to him, he committed suicide. . In 23 AD his son Drusus, with whom Tiberius shared his tribunician authority, mysteriously died. From then on Tiberius, tired of politics, started to make longer and longer annual stays at the island of Capri, off Naples. In 26 AD he retired on this island. He increasingly relied on Lucius Aelius Sejanus to run the governance of the empire and with his withdrawal to Capri Sejanus came to control the state machinery. Tiberius called him his socius laborum (partner in my labours). Sejanus plotted to overthrow Tiberius. The plot was discovered and in 31 AD Tiberius ordered his execution. The senate also persecuted several of Sejanus colleagues. Tiberius now embarked on a series of treason trials. It was said that everyone who had some connection with Sejanus and members of families who had ties with the rival Julian family were tired and executed. This led to a view that the last years of Tiberius' reign as tyrannical. This view has been challenged by several historians. They note that throughout Tiberius' reign only 52 people were charged with treason and that only half of them were convicted. They also claim that many of the trials were more down to the zeal of the senate, rather than Tiberius himself.

What were features of the Roman government?

Tiberius (ruled 14-37 AD) was the emperor during Jesus' ministry. During his early reign the Jews had become more prominent in Rome. There was resentment towards them. Tiberius ordered the Jews of military age in Rome to join the army and banned the rest from Rome. He threatened those who stayed with enslavement. It is not clear whether any of this was aimed at the Christians, as some historians think that they became distinguished from the Jewish religion later, around 70 AD. Roman policy in Judea was determined by the Roman governor there, rather than Tiberius. More generally, Tiberius was reluctant to be an emperor. He tried to limit the power he would have, but this was rejected. He seemed to wish that the state would govern without him and only gave vague and confusing orders. He left a lot of power to a man called Sejanus and withdrew to a palace in Carpi, south of Rome. Sejanus plotted against him, but was found out and executed. In the final year of his rule, Tiberius became paranoid and ordered many treason trials. Apart from this, withdrew completely from Rome and left governance to the bureaucracy.

Did Tiberius Caesar ever hear of the resurrection of Jesus?

Caesar Tiberius born Tiberius Claudius Nero at 42 BCE who was the second Emperor of Rome after the death of Augustus at 14 AD/ CE until his own death at 37 AD/ CE should be notified for the developments in Judea therefore he should be aware of Jesus Christ's existence and fate. Emperor Augustus who died in AD 14 was the Emperor only during Jesus' early life. He would probably not have heard anything about Jesus, since Jesus' ministry did not begin until well after his death. Tiberius who succeeded Augustus , died in 37AD and Jesus ministry began around 29-30AD. It is possible that Tiberius heard about Jesus, although, since Jesus was executed as a common criminal, contrary to Roman law (since Pilate himself admitted he had done no crime worthy of death), Pilate may have wished to suppress knowledge of this event. It is doubtful whether each and every execution would have been reported to the emperor, since the Romans executed thousands in this manner. There were also a number of other rabbis and teachers in Jesus' time, as well as before and after Him. Since Jesus Himself made it clear that 'my kingdom is not of this world.' it is possible nothing was reported about Him. Certainly Tiberius would have been notified of anything significant. It is debatable whether Jesus would have interested the Romans from their perspective.
