The Zealots were the members of a nationalist Jewish movement which resisted Roman Rule. They were important because they led the Great Revolt of Judea (also called the First Roman-Jewish War) which led to the siege of Jerusalem and the destruction of the city and the Second Temple, the slaughter of many of its inhabitant and the enslavement of 97,000 Jewish war captives. This treatment of Jerusalem was partly due to the Zealots refusing Roman offers of clemency in return for surrender. They fought to the bitter end and forced the inhabitants who wanted to surrender to continue the resistance. When the Romans broke through, they went on a rampage.
