If the last statement be accepted as approximately correct, and it is assumed that Johanan lived at the latest one decade after the destruction of Jerusalem, his public activity as the recognized leader of the pharisaic scribes must have begun between the years 30 and 40 of the common era.
Johanan's part in the last struggle of Jerusalem against Rome has been immortalized in the legends concerning the destruction of that city, which, however, have a historical kernel (Giṭ.

 BookRags: Johanan ben Zakkai Biography
Johanan ben Zakkai was a member of the Great Sanhedrin in Jerusalem, the assembly of 71 ordained scholars that functioned both as supreme court and as a legislature.
Johanan foresaw that the Jews could not be victorious in their desperate struggle against Rome; he was determined, however, that Judaism should not perish even if the Jewish state and the Temple were destroyed.
Johanan was not formally designated as Nasi, prince or head of the Sanhedrin, probably because he was not a descendant of Hillel or of Davidic stock, as Hillel was.

As it reads, the story is anachronistic, since Johanan was older than Joshua, who was the senior of Gamaliel.
Two of Johanan's grandsons, or nephews, are said to have lived in the days of Rabbi.

Johanan ben Zakkai saved him from the Caesar Vespasian, and then R. Johanan ben Zakkai became the Prince at the time of the Destruction, for he found favor in the eyes of the king, see chapter Nezikin and Avoth deRabbi Nathan.
After they had eaten, Rabban Johanan ben Zakkai and his disciples went to a chamber, and they studied and expounded it until the fire was scalding around the house, as at the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai.
Eleazar, his son, studied Torah with R. Johanan ben Hahoranith, of whom it is said (in Sukkah), that the Elders of the House of Shammai and the Elders of the House of Hillel came to visit him (see at the end of the first chapter of Yevamoth).

Late at night, when everybody was in bed and even the night-watchmen around the city walls were beginning to get sleepy, the pupils of Rabbi Johanan came to his home all ready to carry the coffin containing the Rabbi and the stones.

Johanan, the son of Kareah, discovered this plot and told Gedeliah.

After Johanan had retaken this captive company, and Ishmael, the traitor, had escaped, then he became afraid of the Chaldeans, and feared that the King of the Chaldean Empire, Nebuchadnezzar, who had placed Gede­liah over them, would, upon hearing what Ishmael had done, send his army and destroy them.

He warned Gedaliah of the plot of Ishmael ben Nethaniah, who was instigated by the Ammonite king Baalis, to murder the governor; but the latter refused to believe him nor would he grant Johanan permission to slay Ishmael (Jer 40:8-16).
Thereupon Johanan settled at Geruth-Chimham near Bethlehem (Jer 41).
As Ishmael's plan was to take the remnant to the land of Ammon, so that of Johanan and his fellow-chiefs was to go to Egypt.

It is helpful to realize that Johanan was Joiada's younger brother, because letters from the Jewish colony at Elephantine mention Johanan as a high priest in the 14th and 17th years of Darius's reign.
According to Ezra 10:6, Johanan already had a room in the Temple precincts in the 7th year of Darius, so he must have been at least a late teenager at this time.
Johanan, age 26, has title of high priest, accord ing to Elephantine letters.

Born some years before Jesus, Johanan ben Zakkai was the great rabbi at the Council of Jamnia about AD 90, surviving by over a decade the fall of Jerusalem.
Never did he waver even for a moment in his opposition to the rebellion, which he felt was to bring destruction on the people, the sanctuary and the land.
Fearful lest the carnage should destroy all teachers and transmitters of the oral tradition, Johanan ben Zakkai escaped from the city, and set up an academy in a vineyard at Yabne, or Jamnia, near the Mediterranean coast.

Johanan’s words “A thief knows his trade” changed the discourse from an argument about Jewish law to a personal attack.
Again, using the example of a teen’s curfew, do you use words like “You are always too loose as a parent,” or “You are always too strict as a parent.” When arguments become personal attacks, again it is time to step back.

 Heritage
Once, as Rabban Johanan ben Zakkai was coming forth from Jerusalem, Rabbi Joshua followed after him and beheld the Temple in ruins.
Fortunately for the survival of Judaism, however, the Pharisaic belief that religious authority should rest with rabbis (teachers) rather than with the Temple priesthood had already firmly taken hold.
Under the leadership of Johanan ben Zakkai, a group of rabbis assembled in Jabneh, a small town south of Jerusalem, where they established a synagogue and rabbinical academy.

 Johanan - the crucified man
In 1968, an ossuary (or bone box) was found in a tomb north of Jerusalem, inscribed with the name Johanan.  It contained the remains of a man who had been crucified.
Among the bones, there was a heel bone with an iron nail through it.   The leg bones had both been broken - one was a clean fracture, but the other was smashed into pieces.  This ossuary is a remarkable archaeological confirmation of the accuracy of the Bible's account of how Jesus was crucified.
